PPM not working! Help!

Hi, I'm trying to connect my turnigy 9x through my ppm encoder to my pixhawk. When I connect my ppm encoder to the pixhawk the led starts flashing. The problem is when I connect my turnigy reciever to the ppm encoder it doesn't turn on. I'm using a ppm encoder that I ordered from China and I think it just doesn't supply enough power to the receiver. I did however check with a voltmeter and saw that 4.5 volts was being supplied. Is there anyone here that had the same problem? Here are some pictures of the ppm encoder that I have. I think with all the trials and errors I made I fried the receiver... Any help would be great! thanks!

  • SJ1 , you need solder together, to get +5V to passthru to your reciever.
