For 4 bikes... yes, you need to start with a double (they are pretty clear about only using two add-ons). But for three you use a single as the base.

If you only transport one bike a lot of the time, a single has an advantage over a double as it folds up completely out of the way on most cars. No need to move it to get in and out of the rear of your car. This was the main selling point for me for buying the 1UP at all.

YMMV
