After measured and assessed all aspects involved in conversion, I took courage and, about a month ago, the last days of the year, started the "slaughtering" that ended these days, happy ended, the result you can see in the attached images.
For conversion was used a recently appeared board, not having yet time to gain the popularity it deserves, designed as a directly plug and play upgrade for the popular FlySky 9X, and which was designed to transform a 9X basically into a 9XRPro, should I dare to say Taranis ?

Unlike boards like Taranis or 9XRPro, which could have been used for this conversion, besides price, which is half, it was designed by a mind open to experiments, with greater extensibility than the other boards made for somewhat closed radios. A look at the macro level on board revealing dozens of additional connection points for supplemental devices which can further expand the board capabilities, like switches, pots, gyro / accel, gps, rotary encoder,
