There is no requirement to use two power and two ground
connections. Also, according to team updates, you can modify
the board to run off of the 5 volt rail by removing the voltage
regulator and installing the jumper across the pads provided for
this purpose. By doing this the power and signal wires can terminate
on the digital input rail of the RC with no extra wiring to the 12
volt supply.
