I left it reversed from a different plane........

Got a TX with model memory, no problem with that since.
Until you try to fly Model 2 with the Tx left on Model 1.

I never use multiple model memory for just that reason. I have seen extremely good, intelligent pilots total their planes due to taking off with the wrong model set on their Tx.

Thank you, Thank you very muuuuuuch!. I have had a computer radio for several years. My reason is that I use the same switches for the same functions on all my planes such as retracts , flaps and such.
If you have several transmitters, some switchs are not in the same area or not their at all. Along with what minn is saying, this can cause a brain fart and you can drop the gear but instead drop a flap and down she goes. (Seen it done). Or change the idle speed with the engine kill switch?
