You would need to check for specific transmitters but some are capable of both mode1 and mode 2. I personally use a Hitec Aurora 9 channel that allows me to assign any channel to any stick. The instruction book shows instructions on how to switch the ratchet from one side to the other. What the radios today are capable of is usually more then what most guys will ever use unless you get into special situations. What used to take us several hours now takes minutes.
