How to upgrade the TronXY X5S firmware from the stock 1.1.6 dev to the current 1.1.8 Marlin

While were at it we will turn on any missing safety features for Thermal Runaway etc. We will also enable Manual Mesh Bed Leveling through the LCD Display and show how to auto tune the PID parameters for the hot end using GCode as for some reason the display interface failed on me at the last minute... go figure :(.

The latest version of Marlin can be found here : https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin
the Arduino IDE here : https://www.arduino.cc/

If anyone's having troubles with finding Sanguino... goto filepreferences and add this line to Additional Boards Manger URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Lau...

All 3 of my printers came from GearBest for review, some of the upgrade parts I bought myself, either way I will provide links to all parts used including the printers themselves.

My Excel info as shown will be made available through my GitHub very soon, I have a few more tweaks to make first.
