Describe problem solved by the proposed feature

I tried to use Hobbywing H6M, but they don't work with can communication. In ardupilot there is an option under dronecan to select Hobbywing esc which is missing here.
Is it possible to add this feature? it is really frustrating to have a dronecan esc that can provide all the telemetry and not be able to use it.

Describe your preferred solution

hobbywing driver implementation?

Describe possible alternatives

no

We were planned to integrate Hobbywing DroneCAN until I came across this in the PX4 discuss. I hope to use the Hobbywing system as well.

You may need to email Hobbywing's engineer/developer to get them to recognize the PX4 user and then begin implementing the code.

We have already contacted them, but it seems they are not that interested in fixing the problem, which is a real shame because Ardupilot can support them.
I thought that some experienced people could port the Hobbywing esc code from Ardupilot to PX4 with almost no effort.
