One transmitter two recievers
« on: May 13, 2010, 01:56:33 pm »

I have a 5 channel 2.4 system.

if i bond 2 receivers with the transmitter can i run both recievers at the same time for basic control. IE left hand gimball to give throttle and steering to one boat and the same on the right gimball for another boat, if you see what i mean?

Should the opposite of "ambidextrous" be "ambisinistrous"?  Sort of cack-handed both sides.  I've always been able to do it, but never had a machine to help demonstrate it.

No reason you can't control both sticks at once...

I'm just generally inept at it Malcom. Put the smallest boat in the biggest lake.... It's just a matter of time.

True, but he was "only" flying one item.  Two boats in motion at the same time is a whole different story.

I seem to remember reading that the transmitter tends to see one rx as the master and any
 electronic glitches result in the tx losing lock (unbinding) with the slave rx.
Some one mentioned it on the forum a few weeks ago but I can't remember where
