What about the software? Is there a setting for LiHV for the X1 Pro in there?

I'm amazed that the X1 AC+ makes reference to LiHV right in the menu, but the product Hitec has deemed "Pro" doesn't. It's only a firmware change away... How 'bout it Hitec?

The X1Pro needs a hardware change as well as software update to handle the LiHV cells properly. Unfortunately, the X1Pro does not have the sales numbers to justify the running change.

It's a great charger nonetheless, it just came to market a little bit earlier than LiHV cells.
