Title: Radio Control of Loco's.
Post by: gtmspyder on October 08, 2013, 00:15
There was an interesting demonstration of this type of control at the 009 Convention, is anyone interested in my attempt to add radio control to the Glen Ogle layout loco's?

Regards,

BrianT.

Yes, why not? It's all grist to the mill. It will be interesting to see your experiences of doing it.

There is already a thread on radio control in this section.

I think Roger was pointing out to you that there is already a thread with the same topic, rather than putting you off. I am sure that if you want to post your experiences on the topic that Frank already started then as Hugh says, it will indeed be more grist to the mill and will enhance the growing interest in the subject.

Brian,

Please feel free to add your experiences to the thread I started.

Or carry on here if you prefer.

I am certainly interested and based on the other forum it will take me further along the learning curve hanging on your coat tails. Its seems a bit like when DCC started, what is simple and PBO to some is not to others
I hear that it has a bright future once the DCC brigade see the light! If it wasnt for the big investment in DCC it could be much further forward now

Well, as Frank was the instigator of my dabble into radio control with his excellent demo lecture at the 009 convention at Kegworth, I think it would only be gentlemanly to transfer my epistles to his thread, so all future comments from me will be posted on Frank's thread, "Radio Control", in this section of the forum.
