Did this hurt my radio gear?
Guys,
I recently turned my Tx on, (Futaba 9C), while it was on PCM mode, but my planes Rx is on PPM. My servos started glitching like crazy, before I realized what I had done. I quickly turned my Tx off, and switched back over to PPM.
This happened, because I am setting up another plane on PCM, but I also fly a plane on PPM. Both receivers are channel 21, but one is PCM and one is PPM.
I did a range check, and everything seemed ok, but I was worried I may have damaged something. Thanks for any advice.
P.S. Servos were Hitec 56 and 5945mgs. THanks.

No, it won't damage your RX. It's possible a servo could have been driven to its stop and damaged but if everything checks ot ok, you're fine. Go fly!
