Hey if anyone has a broken X3CP lying around for parts let me know. I'm looking for the wire piece that allows you to use the 2 USB ports on the Control Panel. Reason is I bought a Panel off Ebay and it never Came with it. So I'm basically stuck with dead USB ports on a x3CP.
Will pay for the wire and shipping.
Heres a Pic of the Piece that I need:

Me three
it would be nice to source the little connectors for the USB ports in the panel. That would be ideal if we, say, want to add a proper hub and relays

The panels themselves are hard to find, it's even worse for spare parts :-/

It is a pretty simple job to hard wire the USB board by piggy-backing off of the rear of the controller ports 3 & 4
Not ideal by any means but at least it gets your USB ports working cheaply and easily and you can always undo the "mod" if a cable does show up.

Go one further and put relays in there for better compatibility
