Changing the Rx should not have any effect on the RMG and its settings. Changing Transmitter may have an effect, if you have used the Tx programming to set limits (this is not recommended in the manual and so should not be an issue to the RMG) . Also applying servo reverse to the Tx for that channel will affect the RMG, according to its manual.
