Default Transmitter-Probably a dumb question!

I have a Futaba 6ex transmitter set up for a trainer. Everything works just great. NowI am now trying to set it up to also control another plane. The second receiver (Identical to the first) has been linked and all LED's work according to the directyions in the manual, but the servos don't seem to work! Is there something else special that I should do? Thanks for any help or suggestions!

Did you select model #2 in the Transmiter to link the the second RX to?

I think I did, but am not sure. I will try again to be sure.

Thanks!

You have to activate the "trainer" function when programming the radio for the trainer (p, 15 of the manual). It would have been nice if they'd mentioned this on p. 33, where they tell you all the other trainer stuff. Very confusing presentation.

I had the plug in wire 180 degrees off. I turned the wires around and they worked great. I really thought that they would only work one way, but not so. Thanks for your help!
