The DHT has a male plug... but with a little rubber cover on to prevent short circuits when not used.

You remove the little cover to reveal the pins, then plug the header from the converter...

I had one idea....what about to have the TTL always on the module and be able to upgrade the module ?
Something like this...

The last update was more than a year ago, so... it's not like you'd have to do that every day. We'll probably have one in the coming months, but that's it unless you want to do beta testing.
But there's no issues running a set of wires somewhere outside you could plug the USB adapter to when needed.

yes i'm thinking to solder 3 wires (required for upgrade) on the module and on the other side a mini usb and make a hole on the transmitter and glue it....so when i need to update it i will plug the FrSky USB Dongle onto this mini USB....:D
