What if I wanted to put individual PU4 systems on each wing of an aircraft ?

Bluetooth should now allow for that.  (Probably could have a few engines on each wing)

Add a flag for the initializing of the onboard processor to tell it that it is the "left side" or "right side" wing engine.   Then the controller views the engines pairs as individual motors.

This way I can build heavier plane with better lift/drag (like a balsa wood / mylar thermal glider...).    For starters we're going to start launching at altitude (Parking garage) so we don't have to power up for a take off.   Maybe even fly thermals off the adjacent asphalt parking area.
