Default buddy box

Hi All
I have a question about the possibility to connect two different transmitters .(to train someone)
in other words , I want to connect a t6exap futaba transmitter to a non futaba transmitter , only using the signal and ground from both .

In order to train someone over a buddy box, you need a cord to connect from your Tx to other non Futaba Tx, as Jr's Tx can be connected to Futaba's Tx provided that you have the right cord with right connectors on it. I'm sure you must have understood, some other expert would explain you pretty well about it.

Thx armody
I know that there are ready cables to connect different transmitters , but the other non futaba transmitter that I have is not a well known mark and in addition it doesn't have a connector . so that;s why I post the question.
thx a lot

Put simply, you are trying too hard.
You need to get this set-up:

First of all, do you know if your no-name transmitter is positive or negative shift?

Don't re-invent the wheel. Purchase or borrow the correct product or expect to pay for it the hard way.

You're welcome shreifali.

I knew somebody would come with great solution.

Bruce is someone who I would rather say A SOLUTION PROVIDER who always comes with Proofs of Solution.

Keep it up Bruce, and good luck to you shreif.

the hassle and cost of wiring a non trainer ready radio just isn't worth it. go to EBAY and snag one of many trainer boxes for $20.00.
they are quite common and cheap.
