Trainer (page 4/11)
This menu is used when the transmitter is functioning as the Master in a “buddy box” arrangement
(the Master is the transmitter held by the instructor and is the one to which the model’s receiver is
bound). The menu allows the PPMin (trainer) inputs coming (by cable or wirelessly) from the student
(Slave) transmitter to be matched to the channel setup of the Master transmitter. The channel order
of the Slave transmitter and the Master do not need to be the same, provided this screen is used to
match them up correctly. The slave transmitter does not have to be a 9XR Pro: compatible
transmitters include the 9XR, 9X and Spektrum. Transmitters such as Futaba can also be used but
may require special cables.
Transfer of control to the student transmitter for a given channel is done by activating the switch
shown in the last column. Normally this would be TRN (the momentary toggle switch) for all
channels, though sometimes instructors prefer to transfer control selectively with separate switches
for some channels. When the Trainer Switch is held ON, PPMin from the Slave transmitter is
substituted for input generated by the Master transmitter itself and the student has control of the
model. All the mixes on the Master Tx are applied to the student inputs. This includes, for example,
expo or delta wing (elevon).
