Cirdna, It sounds like your a little light on basic R/C (radio control) theory. I'd suggest a little research on the fundamentals. Google "Radio Control basics" and do some reading. Most sites are aircraft specific but at this level the concepts are the same across all model types.

Things will start to fall into place.
