RE: Negative and Positive side
Are you talking about the connector pins?
Different brands will have different orientation. Old Airtronics for example has Negative, Positive, then Signal, & the newer ones Negative, Signal, & positive. (or I think its the other way around)
2 channel - 3, 4 doesnt really give us any clue.
Which RX and Servo do you have?
Photo/s would help.
