Default RE: 5 in 1 what does it mean?

Typically when a manufacturer labels anything a X-in-1 is basically referring that this ONE unit can perform the work of X separate components. This is typically done with micro-aircraft to save weight. Servos, speed controls, Battery eliminators, receivers and other sensors can all be installed on the same board and have them work in unison. On a much larger machine, you would want to get the components separately to be able to replace them in case one of them goes bad. Not such the case on the combined units.
