Cheers Ross. The Tx shown is the most basic controller and actually you can bind as many Rx (receivers in locos) as you like to the same controller - but if they're switched on and in range they'll all respond. The binding process takes about 5 seconds so it's easy to couple a new Tx to an Rx. Some prefer to have several basic controllers and bind them as needed each session (obviously good for the club when you can hand out a Tx to other drivers). Others like the multi-channel selector type that have either a 3-way toggle to quickly choose between 3 Rx, or a 10-channel rotary selector. Like a traditional DCC controller if you move the selector to another channel the previous loco you were controlling will carry on as you left it. See the range at fosworks.co.uk/omni-radio-1
Thanks for asking Will, you reminded me I wanted to put a link in to another video. Expand the "More..." in the description above and you'll see the link 👍
Brilliant that Phil. Does each loco need a separate controller?
Ross.

Hi Phil, which size battery packs have you managed to squeeze in?.
