Hi @Martin-Lukac
Good catch on the pin swap. The Table is correct, with Pin 6 = GND.

The one thing I was wondering is related to this comment:
" I can power the ESC and the FCv2 separately."
That is not necessarily a good thing, and likely to lead to problems if you are powered up or down at different times. If one output (TX) is driving an unpowered input (RX), it could put the HW in a bad state. Please make sure to have them synced for ON and OFF.
Thanks.

Here are the links to the test firmware:

M0129-3
M0129-6

After you update, you should see the following version after running voxl-esc-scan.py (except yours will be M0129-6). The firmware version will be 39.23 and this version will be reserved only for this test firmware:

INFO: ESC Information: INFO: --------------------- ID : 0 Board : version 40: ModalAi 4-in-1 ESC (M0129-3) UID : 0x2039333557555304003F0029 Firmware : version 39.23, hash 30c088dc Bootloader : version 184, hash 10bf24c8 ...

In case you need help updating ESC firmware: https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-escs/faq/#q-how-do-i-update-esc-firmware

We won't officially release this firmware version in order to avoid the aforementioned risk of turning on 5.0V by just installing a firmware update, however we will work on enabling this in the ESC params.

Also, just as a reminder, please be careful soldering to the AUX test points, use high quality flexible cables, and use strain relief to avoid lifting the pads.
