Abstract: A channel extender apparatus is provided for use with a radio control system for a controlled device such as a model airplane, model boat, model car or the like. The control system includes a control box housing plural standard input devices, one for each of X channels. An encoder encodes user input commands from the input devices into a standard digital signal. A trainer connector is provided for connection to a similar control box. The trainer connector is connected to the encoder for developing an instructor output to the similar control box and for receiving a trainer input from the similar control box comprising a substitute digital signal. A switch is connected to the encoder and the trainer connector for selecting one of the standard digital signal and the substitute digital signal. A transmitter is connected to the switch for transmitting a through the air signal based on the selected digital signal.
