Hi Chee,
I have been told the power still needs to be supplied from that connector.
My idea was to only use two of the four connecting pins (one for plus and
one for minus) downward from the expansion board and solder two female
connectors (one for plus and one for minus) on the other two pins, upward.
This way the expansion board will still be connected to the HB, but also you
can supply it with extra power for the motors.
I have not tried it, and any comment is very much appreciated.
