I have a Spirit Pro and i am currently using an AR4649T with a Satellite and the Uni-Cable for HobbyWing Telemetry. My Geo-link arrives tomorrow and in the manual it specifies that the Geo-Link uses the Secondary Satellite port on the Spirit Pro, the Uni Cable for HobbyWing Telemetry uses the Primary Satellite Port. Is it possible to use a Y harness on one of the 2 satellite ports to and use the Telemetry, Geo-Link, and Satellite RX, or will i have to remove either the Satellite or Telemetry?

Use a Spektrum V2 adapter to plug the Sat into the Rud port.
You can use a Y cable to apply power to the 4649T or power it
using the Aux 2 port.

i was scrolling through some of the other posts here, i came across this thread http://spirit-system.com/phpBB3/viewtop ... =20&t=2677 discussing setup using a Satellite RX and the Geo-Link on the regular Spirit, ZeXx86 specifies that on the regular spirit with only 1 port, a Y-harness can be used for the Geo-Link and Satellite RX. one would assume this means the same would work with the Spirit Pro?

Would something like this work providing power to two accessories from a single sat port?

No you can NOT use a Y cable on the Geo Link.
It must be used by itself on the Sat port.

Here is how you can connect 3x Spektrum satellites and 1x SPM4649T together with Spirit Pro.
You can also connect 4th Spektrum satellite instead of SPM4649T - it is only necessary to modify Spektrum adapter so that signal wire is separately connected at the AIL pin.
