Need a 12 channel ExpressLRS setup? Express LRS has you covered. Thanks to Geoff for the idea to use two receivers at the same time.

Perfect! Good detailed explanation for everyone. Something cool you can do is the receivers don't have to be located together. If you're flying a twin tractor with ESCs in the wing, you can have a receiver in each wing powered off the ESC BEC driving that motor and the aileron / flaps for that wing. Even add a third receiver for rudder / elevator. Whatever layout works for your build. 😀

Thanks for the credit John 😉. Great job with the construction and explanation!

I like all the possible ways for the use of this combination. More to wrap my mind around. Good video John.

Awesome video. I can't believe I didn't know about your channel till this video got recommended to me.

I do this same thing for a head tracker module. Has its own receiver with telemetry off and runs of channels 8 and 9. Then I can take it on and off my planes easily with it only needing power.

Awesome explanation but was wondering where do you go to the 'receiver configuration page'. I have a Gruner 'inside' full house glider which needed 9 channels . I intend to expend another Matek R24 receiver for the remaining channels. Hope someone could guide me on this. thanks.

Great video I have been looking for 10+ channel Rxs for my Tx16S but there aren't many around this method looks straight forward and I will be using it. I will have to find out how to remap the receivers as I couldn't see what you were using to do this. Similarly I have to find out how to use a computer to program my TxS16 which I believe is possible.

[BooDevil]

Thank you, I need this!
Can you also get Sbus out of that somehow to feed a gyro that takes Sbus in?

[peacemakermotion]

Excellent!! I have just recently switched over to ELRS and im loving it. I just got one of the rx's for one of my old planes and i really needed one more channel. I thought.. I wonder if it could bind to 2 recievers at once.. nah thats silly. . Turns out not so silly! Great video, Thanks.

P.S. What are the chaces we'll get PPM support with these?

[maldjab]

Hello thanks for the video i did not really understand the remapping process . ON what program are you doing it? thanksagain

[bigeclipse]

What if someone would want two aileron or two elevator servos? How do you recommend setting up the radio so you dont have half the packet rates compared to the other aileron or elevator since one will be assigned in channels 1-4 while the other would be assigned in channels 6-12?

[relteschutte]

Would it be possible to use a serial ELRS receiver connected to a flight controller for the main control surface channels and a secondary PWM receiver for other channels? I am looking at using a SpeedyBee F405 wing mini flight controller on a C-130 build, but will need more channels than the mini has. I have several of these Matek 6 channel receivers. I know they have issues, but thats why would use it to control lights, cargo doors ect. and would like to use them in this capacity.

On a different note. If you were going nuts, could you do more than two receivers using this same approach?

[maldjab]

sorry to ask again but i really dont find the way to change channels order ? Can you please explain thanks a lot

[Mikeylikesit]

I have one more question. Some rxs come with the T shaped antennas. Can i use a normal straight antenna and if so does it have to be a certain length

[VT-FPV]

hey! are you able to get battery Voltage telemetry on this? I did the setup but im unable to get it

[slammerf]

Hi - this is exactly what I was looking for thank you!! I've joined the discord - how do I find that really cool .stl for the dual receiver box pls?

[djtrombley]

I'm trying to bind a new mateksys elrs-r24-p6. When I attempt to flash it via wifi I get an error "Not enough space". Is there a way to tell the procedure to erase and flash or am I doing something stupid?

[Mikeylikesit]

So I have a question. I fly warbirds that have retracts and flaps. Could I use just the 6ch Rx or would I need more channels. Cause you were saying ch 5 is for arming. So is ch 5 on the Rx left empty or can I plug my retracts into ch 5

[nadrojgansi]

Hi John! Is the channel 6 be good to use as a slave for a dual servo aileron setup? Im using it in a beginner 3D foamie. Thanks!

[Mikeylikesit]

What if you fly planes and your using the ESC to power your Rx, how would you power the other one. Or you can't
