Reply to "Couple of unusual items on my new LC+ multi remote"

As Landsteiner said, LionChief/LionChief Plus/FlyerChief use a standard 2.4GHz digital radio for communication. The universal remote actually has two radios in it however, the normal 2.4GHz for LC/LC+/FC control, and a second bluetooth BLE radio. The BLE (Bluetooth-Low-Energy) radio allows communication with (in theory) the HO polar Express model as well as any future BLE equipped engines. The radio will also allow for firmware updates to the remote. There has been discussion that some sort of update will be coming to allow for control of some, if not all, of the engines that are not currently supported.

There is lots of good information in this thread:

Of particular interest to you may be the list of compatible and incompatible engines posted by Jon, (Railsounds), on 1-4-17 at 9:37 AM.

And just for fun, here's a look inside:
