Okay, so I managed to get it to work. On the Hitec system you have to reverse the channel off which the glow driver is run (like The Pope said). I did notice that every time the glow driver is switched on, the telemetry system complains about the receiver voltage. This was just a bench test but I will run the glow driver from a 2s lipo with a BEC module and only use the receiver to provide the input signal, similar to how retract servos are run. This is very important because if not connected like this, the glow driver may cause a receiver brown out in flight, as has been noted by some people on the Hobbyking webpage.
