    The short answer is yes. The long answer is you will need to purchase the upgrade kit that contains the controller, remote, charge cord (apx $800.00). From there, it's plug and play.

    John, so if I have a 2018 ultrex w/o link. A buddy wants to buy an ultrex, so if he buys a new ultrex with link, can we swap hardware in the heads and all be well?

    Yes, it can be done that way, but remember if either motor is returned for warranty work, the serial number will reflect if it's an IP or IPLink. You would change the controller (top of head). He would need to give you the eithernet extension cable, the remote, the charge cord for the remote.
