I power on my servos and they go to, what I assume is, the center position. But, when the radio connects to the receiver, the servos change position.
I am not sure which is the actual centered position. I don't have one of the servo tools that let you run through the whole range of motion, but could do it with a bit of Arduino programming if needed.
But the real question is, is my thinking correct that when they power on that they always move to the centered position? And, if they do, then what is going on when I connect the radio to the receiver?
Here is some testing I have done. This may get confusing, so let me set up my test scenario.
I thought that the problem might be something configured in my radio model on the transmitter for plane1. To test, while receiver1 is still in plane1 I switch to the plane2 model and I get the exact same behavior as with the plane1 model (that is, servos move from what I assume is the centered position to another position when the Tx connects to the Rx). Therefore, I conclude that the problem is with the servos and not the radio model since this is not a problem on plane2.
If all that seems confusing, you can just try to answer the bold question above.
Thanks for any light you can shed on this.

Plane1 (the one with the problematic servos) is a Simple Soarer. It uses receiver1 with the plane1 model on the transmitter.
Plane2 is an FT Tiny Trainer. It also uses receiver1 with a plane2 model on the transmitter. But it has its own servos.
