I take it that the latest firmware update (V4.3) didn't involve a fix for the OMP Hobby's M4 helicopter with its ESC communicating via SBUS2 to the T18SZH Transmitter?

Select 21 NO

You can only select a Sensor Type of Magnet (with Gear Ratio) or Brushless Motor (Pole #'s), not both:(

The pole number can only be an even number!

Unless you know of a work a round?
