  • adds specification for 10 pin ESC connector for additional power requirements
  • adds dedicated 4 pin RC connector for CRSF, ELRS devices as this is a standard on itself
  • add note about connector color and legacy connector provision

When did the RC connector pinout get added?

IMO, all UART connectors should use the standard pinout (VGRT). Having one connector with power and ground swap just confuses things, and most receivers do not have connectors.

Do we have an example part number for the yellow connectors? I have never seen any before.
