8s w/ 1002 or 1202rx ???

I got my 8s for a backup to my 12s. I found out tonight as I was setting up one of my bigger helis, that the 8s will not bind with the 1002rx in my heli.
Is there a way to make it so the deviation tx can bind with a rx that has a higher number of channels than the tx?
Or, is it a hardware thing that makes it impossible?

I transfered all model through usb model folder. Did not make any changes to the bind code, it the stock 123456. I also have the walkera telemetry unit bound with the 1002rx, and it binds fine with my 12s. But when I try to bind with the 8s, no bind. I tried rebind, without doing the bind plug in the rx and resetting the telem bind, did not work. I tried changing the number of channels in the tx, that did not work. Im affraid if i do a total rebind using bind plug that i will have to do the same when I want to use the 12s again. This is a trex 600 going in a scale MD500 fuse, so always needing to do a full rebind is not an option.
Is there something im not doing right?

You will have to use dynamic binding (no fixed ID) and rebind every time if you want to use one of the two TX'es on the one receiver

Yes, I am afraid to.Im affraid if i do a total rebind using bind plug that i will have to do the same when I want to use the 12s again.
The fixed-ID consists of 2 parts. The first is the number you enter, the second is derived from the Hardware of the TX
So yes, if you change your TX you have to do the binding procedure again.
If you want to be able to fly one bird with two TX's auto-binding is a possible option. But for a trex 600 it is probably saver to use fixed-ID and stay with one TX.This is a trex 600 going in a scale MD500 fuse, so always needing to do a full rebind is not an option.

Maybe its the telemetry module that is not allowing the 8s to bind, but the 1002rx is not binding either.

Tried to bind 8s with my 1202rx on my trex600 3D heli (no telem) Fixed ID and it did not bind.
Tried to bind 8s with balsa plane w/2801pro rx Fixed ID and it binds.
It looks like only the devo rx's are not cooperating with using multiple tx's and not having to rebind.

The WK2801 (and J6Pro) protocol uses your fixed-id as is. You can swap Tx as long as you use the same fixed-id
The Devo (and DSM2/DSMx) protocol uses your fixed-id mixed with the module id (unique for each transmitter) so you can't bind 2 raido to the same model even with the same fixed-id
This was done in Deviation to match how the manufacturers do it.
It wouldn't be too hard to allow overriding the txid in hardware.ini to allow 2 transmitters with the same fixed-id to talk to the same receiver.

I will put a ticket in bitbucket.
Im sure there are, and will be, more guys that will want a backup tx that they can use at any time without going through the bind process every time they swap tx's.

#if defined PROTO_HAS_CYRF6936 && ! defined MODULAR
if(MATCH_KEY("txid-cyrf6936")) {
void *ptr = &Transmitter.cyrf6936_id;
*((u32 *)ptr) = strtol(value, NULL, 16);
Transmitter.cyrf6936_id[4] = 0xaa;
Transmitter.cyrf6936_id[4] = 0xbb;
}
#endif
Double assignment?

It will take one serious accident to destroy Deviation credibility at a club when two inexperience users with the same default 123456 FIX ID switch their TX'es on and bind and destroy each others models.
