I recently purchased a DX6i for a trainer and backup to my DX7.

I was testing out training modes last night and I was surprised by the results. I used a stereo cable (instead of a mono cable) and setup a new basic airplane model with no subtrims or any other settings. The training mode I tested was Pilot Link, but I was tried normal with the same results as below.

While watching the servo monitor display, when I would switch from master to trainer, all 4 channels (throt, rud, ail, elev) would shift right by equal amounts. On the monitor screen, the channels would shift about 2/3 cm to the right.

I found it odd that all the inputs were shifted equal amounts, but it isn't a deal breaker because I can fix it with trim on the slave transmitter.

Anyone seen something like this before? I may take my gear to the LHS to see if their equipment does the same thing.
