As for the 4-in-1, the hack is really quite easy. You just take the 4-in-1 apart, and on the board (there are two boards inside) with the pins, you can see that ch 3 and ch 4 pins have been cut short. Get yourself a servo extension cable, and solder the three wires to the three pins on ch3. Put the 4-in-1 back together, sticking the servo extension cable that you soldered to ch3 out the hole where ch5 is, and screw it back together. Then you connect the ESC to the servo extension wire you soldered in. The only difficult part is the soldering (tight space for some), and make sure your iron isn't too hot. Tinning the wires on the extension cable before you solder will really help make it quick. I think it's kind of dumb that they used short pins and blocked ch 3 with plastic, but I guess for some it forces them to upgrade to a CP pro, all seperates , or something else. Time for the mod is about 5 minutes if you're good at soldering.

Good luck!
I'm great at soldering[X(] Do you have a link or picture of the mod. I'm a very visual person
