Our club just bought two new JR Sport SX400 trainer box setups to help support all of the DX6i owners that are going to start showing up. [:@]

We can use the buddy boxes for the JR 9303, SX600, DX7 and probably with the new DX5e that will be shipping with the new Alpha 40 RTF, but not with the DX6i? The DX6i training manual is clear as mud on this point. To quote:

"TRAINER

The DX6i offers a Trainer function that allows the transmitter to operate as a master or slave. The trainer switch is
located on the back left of the transmitter.

MASTER

The transmitter can be used as a master but the slave transmitter must have the same programming (i.e. reverse,
travel adjust, dual rates, mixes, sub trims, etc.) as the master.

SLAVE MODE (CONVENTIONAL)

When using the transmitter as a slave with another DX6i it’s necessary to match all the programmable settings (i.e.
reverse, travel adjust, etc.)."

If Nathan uses his DX6i to buddy box with students, he has to change his radio programming for each student to exactly match their radio configuration? That's pretty freakin' outrageous!

I love the product description for the buddy box at Horizon's Web Site:
