I have created some BLHeli_32 music files which are available in the downloads section of the website.
Currently the tunes are:
- PacMan theme;
- Sandy's new chanter;
- Music box dancer.
I will be creating more tunes and uploading them.

I recently got some ESC's from Amazon. These had a LED that could configured for different colours through the BLHeli configuration utility.
I wasn't that concerned with the LED, they just happened to be the best offer on Amazon at the time but once they arrived I thought I would have a go at changing the LED colour.
My setup was:
When I ran BLHeli Suite It would not connect. It turns out that CleanFlight have dropped BLHeli Passthrough in later versions due to memory constraints on NAZE 32 boards. I tried re-flashing to an earlier version of CleanFlight. After some trial and error I found that the latest version of CleanFlight for NAZE32 boards that has BLHeli passthrough is 2.0.5.
After flashing the FC with CleanFlight 2.0.5 I tried connecting again. This time I got an error saying "Connection to 4-way Interface 'm4wFCIntf' succeeded. Found outdated protocol revision 106! Please update the Interface to a supported revision! (Protocol 107 or higher)". Aarrghh! how frustrating. Needless to say I tried a number of different combinations of BLHeli Suite, BLHeli Configurator, Cleanflight firmware etc. but couldn't get any to work.
I had a number of Arduino Nano clones from Amazon and I thought I might be able to use one of these as an interface. After a bit of searching on the internet I found this article entitled "Flash ESCs with ANY Arduino!". This went beyond what I wanted to do but it helped me get the interface up and running.
Here are the steps I used to get this all working. If you decide to try this you do so at your own risk. If you brick your Arduino, ESC or anything else that's your problem.
