Default Futaba 4PL question

Another 4PL question

Can a 4PL be bound to more than 1 receiver at a time?

1 rx for each model all controlled by 1 tx radio without having to bind
with each models rx each time you want to play, then save the configuration
under the "save model"

Thanks

The 4PL has 40 model memory.

I assume that's what he means, but when he said, "bound to more than 1 receiver at a time" he kind of threw me. I thought he meant controlling more than 1 receiver at the same time.

Futaba's will actually do that. I have left one RC on and gone over and switched to another and both would take off The Futaba's don't bind a RX to a specific model like a Spek does.

Also, post 4PL questions in the 4PL thread. It is the most efficent way to get answers as lots of people that own them are already subscribed to that thread.

You can also move the receivers from one vehicle to another and change models on the TX and you're all set. The RX is a dumb device, it just does what the TX tells it to do and has no knowledge of the model memory or settings in the TX.
