There are proven modification though to overcome these limitations. It however only has 128k of flash memory, which is barely sufficient for DeviationTx.

 == Arduino to PPMin for Extra Inputs == == Arduino to PPMin for Extra Inputs ==
 +The trainer port can be hijacked for an arduino to provide PPM signals from nearly any combination of switches and potentiometers. This modification effectively takes over the trainer port by mimicking a 2nd connected transmitter and injects PPM signal to the channels. Note that once you do this mod, you will not be able to connect another transmitter to the trainer port.
