To FETtec AIO 35A - N
As the FETtec AIO 35A -N doesn’t have an onboard OSD you can simply connect the FETtec
OSD Board to get the same performance.
You can use the 4 pin cable which comes with the FETtec FC G4 or any other JST-SH-1mm 4-
pin cable and connect.

VTX
You can use this connection instead of connecting the VTX to the FC.
But smart audio always has to be connected directly to the FC.
