It looks like S Bus is DESIGNED to use multiple receivers. The real question I have is how (and what) do the S Bus receiver communicate with each other, as opposed to how they drive the servos (still important mind you)
If the receivers form some sort of ad hoc network, then they can decide which of them is receiving the best RF signal and they both use that signal (sound familiar?)
Imagine, one RX in the tail driving 8 servos, another RX in the nose driving a different 8 servos. Meanwhile behind the scenes, the 2 receivers are comparing who has the best signal from the TX and sharing it with the other. The signals to the servos are unaffected, they still come from the receiver they are hooked to.
Hi Matt:
The way I see it and I can be wrong, when you use S.BUS, you program the servos to lets say elevator, so no matter where in the S.BUS chain you connect that servo, it’s going to be an elevator servo.
