12X Used as Master (Instructor)
1. If the 12X is being used as the Master Tx (the Tx operated
by the instructor), select the channel(s) that are to be
operated by the Slave Tx (Tx operated by the student) when
the trainer switch is depressed.
When all channel selectors are in the MAST position, NORMAL
appears on the display and all 4 channels are transferred to the
student when the trainer switch is depressed.
If only certain channels are to be transferred to the student,
highlight and select the channels that are to be transferred,
moving the indicator for these channels to the SLAV position
for these channels. When less than all channels are selected as
SLAV, PROGRAM T appears on the display indicating that the
Trainer System has been programmed to transfer only selected
channels.
The 12X is now ready to be used as the Master or instructor
Tx. Depress the Left trim lever to transfer control to the student.
Control will remain transferred until the Left trim lever is
released.

78: Trainer
The 12X features a programmable Trainer System that allows
the instructor to transfer some or all of the primary flight control
functions (Throttle, Aileron, Elevator and Rudder) to the student.
It also allows for indicating if the transmitter (Tx) is to be the
Master (controlled by the instructor) or Slave (controlled by the
student). The right or left trim lever is used to transfer control to
the student when the 12X is being used as the Master/Instructor
transmitter.
All Dual and Expo rates, Gear, and flap positions are controlled
by the Master Tx. Only the Throttle, Aileron, Elevator and
Rudder channels are transferred to the Slave transmitter.
Note
: The Slave transmitter battery must be charged.
1. Connect the Trainer cord between the Master and Slave
transmitters. Turn the power on to the Master transmitter
(the Slave Tx remains powered off and can even have the
module removed).
2. If the slave radio is a 72MHz system, make sure the Slave
Tx is in the PPM/FM modulation mode. If the slave system
is a 2.4 DSM, this does not apply.
3. Highlight and select Trainer in the FUNC.LIST to obtain the
Trainer Display.
