I've actually asked the same thing. It's my understanding that it requires a different firmware at least, and maybe a new GCS depending on how the firmware is written.
So two ways:
- quick and dirty to make a Revo firmware that acts like an OpLink
it may even have to announce itself on USB as OpLink depending on how the GCS is written
- add "OpLink emulation" to USB HID device function list in Hardware tab
I started looking at the quick and dirty firmware a couple weeks ago but got side tracked. I don't know when I will get back to it...
I ordered one of these for stock (USD $14.50 shipped) but it hasn't arrived yet. At that price it I reserve judgement until I've tested it.
