Hey guys. A.T. posted the attached diagram for conecting a futaba square to the aurora. Can someone help me understand it? Is the futaba pin 2 going to ground, and pin 3 going to the ring, and nothing connecting to the tip? Is the green line between 4 and 5 a jumper?

Always easier to right click on RCG attachments and open them in a new window.
This permits attachement to be blown up to x 400 for easier reading.
In this case, given the Futaba Tx is to be a slave, then as written on the picture, Futaba mini square
plug pin 3 is to the ring of the stereo plug and pin 2 connects to the ground (shield) of the stereo plug.
Futaba pins 4&5 are joined with a blob of solder. see picture of actual plug
