It doesn't seem like there is any way to gang together all of the different decks via the HyperDeck Extreme Control unit. The different deck buttons on the front just seem to be used to switch between controlling each deck.
But you should be able to accomplish this using the RS-422 output ports on the HyperDeck Extreme 8K recorders as you suggested. By looping the RS-422 output to the RS-422 input of the next deck, you should be able to send a single RS-422 command to the first deck and have them all respond to it.
You can also find used RS-422 controllers that are relatively inexpensive and do have ganging capability for controlling 4 decks simultaneously. So unless you need the 8K capabilities of the HyperDeck Extreme, you could do the same thing with the HyperDeck Studio 12G (or one of the the other HyperDeck models) and an external RS-422 controller.
