Today while putting my plane back together, I accidently plugged my battery into the aileron extension... What happens when the battery is hooked up right into one of the channels???

NOTHING...

You can actually hook your battery into any channel.

that is how some 7 and 8 Channel receivers work... you use a "Y" harness... one side for battery and one for the servo.

Don't worry you didn't harm anything.

The radio is still working right?

Yes it is still working, I did a little range check in the basement, but I will do a decent one at the field. I was just worried I had ruined my rx, but thanx for the reply. I feel a heck of a lot better!
