Spektrum RC splits the 2.4 GHz band into 80 slices. When you turn on a Spektrum transmitter it takes two of these slices at its "channels" for talking to the receiver.
It has long been expected that if you tried to turn on the 41st Spektrum system, it would not be able to lock with the receiver. Some people have been concerned about this at large contests. Well, in this month's month's FlyRC they ran a test. They turned on 44 Spektrum DX7s operated them all at once, in close proximity. They all seemed to work fine. Then they turned on a JR 9303 2.4 GHz, the 45th transmitter. Know what? They all worked, all at the same time, with no problems. The JR was being used to fly planes in a test pattern so any issues could be observed. No issues. They also were logging flight information on the Spektrum reporter. No problems. Seems the 40 radio limit is not a limit after all.
