Can I replace my NAZA-M with a AMP 2.5 without modification?

Can I replace my NAZA-M with a AMP 2.5 without modification?

i.e., I don't want to cut wires on the stock DJI ESCs in case I want to go back to it, but I do want to try the AMP 2.5 to see how it acts on my hex f550.

I just want to be sure there is nothing to "watch out for"

Also should the default PIDs be okay at least to start?

Thanks,

Ed,

    DJI OPTO ESCs have no BEC. So no 5v.
    I didn't bother to remove the reds from mine.
    I get ~7mv on the red. I can't see there being any issues. If your concerned about it remove JP1.
    Thinking you could remove the reds and NAZA would be fine too. They don't do anything.

    The way I avoid cutting the ESC red wire is just put a servo extension lead on it, and cut the extension's red wire.  That's cheap, and reversible.  The downside is you have a longer wire to stow.

    I'm new at this, but my stock PIDs were fine for my hexa out of the box.  My tri (moving from a KK2 board) needs a little work, but it's perfectly flyable with stock PIDs.
