how is this done.

Just remove the red wire from the speed controller that is going to the receiver. Or you can do it the way I do and buy a short servo extension and remove the red wire from that, plug it into the ESC and then the receiver and you are good to go. Don't forget that once you do that you must use a small 5 cells receiver pack or a external BEC.
