LionChief Plus GP-38 multiple units?

The **same** SKU should "lash up" to maximum of 3 which can be operated under BLE.

That sounds good. How do I determine the SKU? Is it something I specify when ordering? And to confirm, up to three units will work on the basic LC+ app? Thanks, Jon.

Just another engine identical to what you already have is what you need. One remote will work both engines.  Think by sku they mean model#.

Ah, got it. Thanks. That is really cool. For someone just getting back into it, the LC+ system is very affordable and easy to use. 

Do you happen to know if it is possible to run one unit fwd and one in reverse in the same direction?

You would have to reverse the leads to the motors on one of the units.  You can do that by swapping the leads on each motor which would require soldering, or switching the leads at the control board which involves a Molex plug.  Of course by  doing that,  you will have one unit that always runs the opposite what the remote control dial is showing.

Great, very helpful. Thank you.

I have two NYC GP20 which have Lionchief Plus. I lash them together and use command mode and run both with one remote. It works fine and is a strong puller

Nice looking layout!
