Well after 30 minutes of pissing about on the web and the SkyRC website (which is crap) trying to find the skylink software, I eventually found a thread on RCTech that mentioned 'g force link' software for the SkyRc ESC.
I had to dust off my last and only windows laptop that had sat unused for 7 years to install the software, but it worked like a charm - instantly recognising my ESC was plugged in (I already had the USB link module) and recognising that new firmware was available.
After the install I tried several power on-off cycles & it would appear that the calibration was retained. I'll be trying it in anger on Sunday, so fingers crossed.
In the meantime, I've ordered the wifi module so I can do this from my phone. I also found the program box which can do quite a lot of stuff I had no idea about!
