I'd be so bad and all the electrical stuff, loving the progress.

Good video

Awesome bit of kit never seen it put together how you have shown so thanks for that, I’m glad that at least the one loco can be used on it, quick question does the loco have to be dcc for it to work? 🙂👍🏻

[@EmperorsPath]

Nope not at all. One that I tried was DCC ready, but the old Percy is just a DC loco :)

[@HemelDownModelRailway]

@@EmperorsPath ah cool thanks for the info, inspiration right there in your video thank you 😊

[@zombiedad]

Nice! It is really coming together. The little module is really cool. I wonder why it works on the smaller engines only? Current draw? Forward voltage? Something else? I look forward to finding out. Good stuff

[@EmperorsPath]

It was down to old/large motors new/small motors! Silly now I've said it, but it makes sense

[@dibsyardshuntinglayout]

Really interesting to see the module working. Did you ever get to the bottom of the issue with the other locos? Does that module have any settings for acceleration and deceleration, or is that preset and not adjustable?

[@EmperorsPath]

It was mainly due to old/large ringfield motors. The bubble car has a new style more efficient motor, and the percy is such a small motor it didn't draw too much. There are definitely settings in there to adjust various bits, I'll have a sit down and play one day soon and see what I can achieve

[@dibsyardshuntinglayout]

@@EmperorsPath aha. Good to know if I ever need one, as my bubble car is an old lima with a big ring field motor!

ADD MORE FEEDER WIRES ALONG THE MAIN WAY
