Error check my schematic please (motor controller)

[Triode]

I just would like to have others look at this. There are always improvements to be made, and I'm no expert.

Stuff im not sure of:
-am I using any bad resistor values for LEDs and switches
-Proper regulator setup
-conflicts with pins on PIC chip (ie using pins as outputs or inputs where it will cause errors later)
-will the programming connection work here?

Connections used:
receiver# pins to connect to a RC radio receiver. Two power it and the other gets the signals.
the +18 pins connect to a pair of 9V rechargeable batteries.
motor 1 and 2 connect to the lines of one motor and motor 3 and 4 connect to the lines of a second.

Purpose of componenets:
One button is reset, the other will be used to calibrate the motor controller.
The LED's will show what calibration state it is in.
as a side note the plan is that the user will push it once and led 1 will light to indicate that you are calibrating the high side of channel 1, then you turn the channel 1 knob to what you want to be the high position and press the button, then led 1 and 2 light indicating that it is configuring the neutral position, and so on, it repeats for channel 2, this is very minimal interface I know, but it just needs to be enough that I have some idea where it is. Maybe I'll add more on the next version.

WHat type of motor? Unipolar stepper?

This question:
* RECEIVER1-2 seems to be conected to nothing.
* What is connected to CON1? Serial cable to a computer?

Apart from that I cannot see anything particular wrong.

Oh, I'll clarify my explanation a little more;

Connections used:
receiver# pins to connect to a RC radio receiver. Two power it and the other gets the signals.
the +18 pins connect to a pair of 9V rechargeable batteries.
motor 1 and 2 connect to the lines of one motor and motor 3 and 4 connect to the lines of a second.

The motors are small DC motors, 9V 1.2A stall current.
The receiver pins will be connected to female servo connectors and will be plugged into an RC receiver, 1 and 2 connect to the systems +5 and GND lines, and into those lines respectively on the receiver.
CON1 is going to connect to a PIC programmer, the connections from left to right are VPP, +5V, GND, PGD, PGC

Still doesn't clearify how the dc motors is wired up.

one is connected to output 1 and 2, the other is connected to 3 and 4. The polarity doesn't matter, this is a symmetrical H-bridge. Is there something specific you're trying to figure out here?
The physical connection is a awg 18 wire harness with a two pronged jacketed plug. There is no protection other than that shown here. The ports will be programmed so that one output will be at 0 volts and the other will have a PWM pulse that goes between 0 and around +12. For the opposite direction it flips sides.
