I got my shipment from RCTimer today and soldered in the right-angle pins.
I also bought the "better" LEA-6H GPS with magnetometer. The socket for the GPS is clearly marked but nothing says "Mag" on it anywhere. Of course there is no documentation with it, and the stuff I found online only covers the CN-06 V2 GPS, which doesn't have a mag on it.
I've read that onboard mags are problematic with multi's; thats why I bought the off-board mag on the GPS. There is a four-pin connector next to the "PM" (I interpret to mean power module) connector. That is labeled "12 C". Even if I assumed that is for the magnetometer, I don't know if I need to disable the on-board magnetometer, or if so, how.
Does anyone have a link to better information?
Does anyone know what the "12 C" socket is for?
While we're at it, does anyone know what JPs 2 thru 4 are supposed to do?

Thanks! Yeah, I finally found another blog post. What threw me off is that the connector is actually I ("eye") 2 C, but RCTimer had 12 C (digit one) silkscreened on the case. So when I searched for references to that connector, I searched for the wrong thing.
I found the trace and cut it. I have all the parts to build my drone now except a GPS dome and pedestal, so I'll velcro it somewhere else temporarily until I place another order.
I'll go in search of that YouTube video on it.
