  1. Hi Giles. What you think of this. if the servo is very small. it seems to me a nice solution. mount the servo in a different way I think it will work at 1:64. In our scale must be able to Maybe you saw them. I'm going to order one. Is very small https://www.sol-expert-group.de/1-87-modelbouw/Micro-servos:::48_73.html Have a nice day

  6. Hi Rich. You are right it concerns steer and drive away. I still have to learn to drive well. Yes I have the controler on the picture. i have forward and reverse on one stick. But i can change it in forward and backward to arrange with other stick and throttle with other stick I'm going to see the homepage. thanks for the link John
  7. Hi Rich, Thanks, I made a new movie on my new layout under construction with a background sound of a ford aa, I put some ligts in the ca but, .they are still too white want to drive the car yet slightly faster, so will install another engine. more later. I think it is possible to use the faller system in larger scales. you will have to build the system in the larger car s then you can drive with more cars on the track in an easy way a nice challenge john LC
