Trainer

The DX18 features a programmable trainer function with 4
trainer modes. The transmitter assigns the trainer function to
Switch I. The 4 trainer modes include:
Inhibit
In Inhibit, the slave transmitter must have the same program-
ming as the master transmitter (e.g., servo reversing, travel
adjust, sub-trim, trims).
Programmable
Programmable mode enables you to program the master trans-
mitter to transfer any or all individual channels when you activate
the trainer switch. This mode is ideal for beginners learning to
control individual channels while the master transmitter
maintains control of all other channels.
The slave transmitter should be in PilotLink Slave mode, if
available. It is not necessary to have model programming in the
slave transmitter.
Pilot Link Master
When Pilot Link Master is active, the slave transmitter controls
the primary stick functions (Throttle, aileron, elevator and rudder)
while the master maintains control of all other channels and
functions (including dual rates and auxillary switch positions).
PilotLink Master is ideal for complex models as the master
transmitter maintains control of all secondary functions, for
example fi lght modes, retracts, fl aps and brakes.

Analog Switch Setup

Allows all sticks and pots to be used as a kick point to turn on
functions like mixes. To add a kick point:
1. Move the control stick, lever or knob to the desired kick point
position.
2. Scroll to the desired kick point and press the scroll wheel
once to save the selection.
To delete a kick point, scroll to the desired kick point and press
the Clear button.

Slave
Use Slave mode when using the DX18 as a slave transmitter and
PilotLink is active in the master transmitter.
