Engineers Pulse laser recipe pin question

So, I bought a Mamba and am engineering it, and decided to engineer the pulse lasers. I didn't have a recipe pinned, but didn't feel like flying out to Broo in my Mamba, so I flew there in my DBS and pinned a recipe, then flew home. Then I changed my mind and flew out there again and pinned a different recipe then returned home and switched to my Mamba, but in the pulse lasers didn't appear in the remote engineering interface. So, I thought I needed a grd 1 upgrade, so I flew the Mamba out to wierd and applied a grd 1 upgrade, but after returning home again, it still didn't show up. So, do I need to actually fly the Mamba to Broo and pin the recipe? I swear I was able to engineer other things with existing pins, so what's going on? Is it a glitch? Is there a limit to active pins? Do I have to fly the Mamba to Broo and pin the recipe? I don't want to fly out there if it isn't working.
 
Not sure if it's related, but I've only been able to pin a BP for one type of laser. IE: If I pin while engineering beams at Broo's I can remote engineer bursts with that BP.

I have had no issues with using pinned "recipes" on other craft and on different size of module. I have pinned Focussed for pulses and have G5'd new-buy weapons remotely.

One thing that occurs to me is that maybe you pinned a recipe when modding a turreted item? I understand that the recipes are different (not in content but in applicability) but I have not tested that info which had I heard from others. (i.e. a recipe you pinned when modding a turreted pulse can't be used remotely on a non-turret pulse - I think that is the case but I'd be happy to be wrong :) )

Ahhh, that is probably it, as my DBS has the default fixed pulses and my Mamba has gimbals. So I either need to go fixed on the Mamba, or fly out to broo and re-pin.
