Thrown together to see if it will work, and it does. Time to tidy things up.
ProtoX was not enjoyable to fly with original tx. This transformed the quad.
It is now better than wife's Ladybird which I thought was the best thing ever for poking around the house.
Calibrated and setup with some rates and expo it is sweet as.
Didn't want to wait for module so hacked original tx. Seems it have an amp of some description.
1) black wire scs
2) white wire sck
3) red wire mosi
6) green wire +3.3V
5) black gnd

Range, still had signal at 70 meters @ 30mw. I give up at that point as I consider that more than enough.

Nice! So this was a literal "hack", i.e. you actually cut down the board? Did you take any other pics of the cut?

Yes cut down the board. No other pics of cut, but if you look at pics already posted you should see where to go. If not let me know.

edit: I cut a bit to close to 3.3V rail (lower edge of board in pics), you may want to leave a little more room.
