If you had 40 cars and receivers you could control all 40 at the same time.

So basically the memories in the 4PL are just for storing model settings and the link data between the receiver and the transmitter. If you tried to bind 41 receivers it will delete the first receiver stored and so on.

If I understand you correctly, the RX will transmit it's ID to the TX and the TX will record it? Seems like an unnecessary complication and cost.

I always thought that communication was one way only (except for units with telemetry of course), that the TX was transmitting blindly and binding made the RX record the TX's ID.
