I see several 'trailblazers' from the Freerails forum here and just wanted to spread the RC word on a UK site -
My interest in RC OO guage is related to a proposed garden railway where I will have the space to run loooong trains. RC will allow virtually no track maintenance or connection problems.
To this end I have used the excellent Deltang Rx60 receiver and 3 x 3.7 Li-ion batteries configured for 11.1 volts in a Hornby West Country loco (well tender actually) and Tx2 transmitter module built into a test case.
The Rx60 comes with 4 wires attached - 2 for battery and 2 for motor, so it is just a case of selecting suitable batteries and we're away ....
The video is on other forums but if you have not seen it ...
Next to get the Deltang treatment will be a Bachmann CEP, Hornby 5Bel and Rebuilt Merchant Navy .... Keep the info coming guys - this is the future ...
Thanks .. Andy
