Not enough inputs Neo, converting from Futaba to Vbar Control

I'm converting 1 of my nitro helis that have a vbar neo with futaba receiver. I've managed to get a couple of Mikado Vbar Satellites and want to get things ready for when I get my Vcontrol Evo next month.

The issue I've noticed is that I'm not going to have enough inputs on the neo after fitting the satelite.

As far as I can work out I'm not going to have a enough inputs on the neo for the optipower ultraguard back up battery and ultraguard on/off switch as these both take an input. Is there any other way around this problem?

I need extra channels for;

Ultraguard back up battery
Ultraguard on/off switch


ESC
Throttle Servo

TAIL
Tail servo

CH1-3
Swash plate servos

CH4
Reciever battery

AUX1
Switch Glow

AUX2, AUX3
VBar Control Satellite

RPM
RPM sensor

Okay - here you might have to deal with some Y-harnesses - or - if the VBar NEO has the addendum (noVLink) in the List - just enable the internal VLink per Upgrade and add Antennas.

Thank RV. I have the older neo so can't do the vlink upgrade. I don't like the idea of adding Y harness as there's more chance of failure, so I'll probably just buy a vbar neo vlink as that will make room.

Thanks for your time

Is it possible to get a longer version of the satelite cable Mikado part number 04977?

If not can we extend it somehow?

I won't do this.

The external sat connection is a little disadvantage against internal VLink. This connection can probably be disturbed and so - the NEO will have lost packets if something electrical hits the wires here. So - not a good idea to use a longer one at all.

Consider - on a VLink you have to deal with the antennas as the are too.
