Large Scale Central

Remote Control Fun

I wish my track would corrode a little faster! Battery or not, I like the “scale” look of tarnished rails and a polished surface.

Doing a trailing car myself this weekend!

The esc that I'm using is a $5 el cheapo from Hong Kong they don't come with a reverse function however that upgrade only adds $11.99 to the conversions and that's bought from the local hobby shop that's expensive, can do it much cheaper if I wanted. ($1.95 ea from hong kong)
What are you using for reverse function?

Wayne


You can use any double throw switch, I bought mine from Home Depot, its a bigger one then needed however on the FA unit it fits almost perfectly in the window on the door, so no modifications are needed to mount it. I’ll take a picture of it later today and post for you.

depends on how much I like and use the engine, lol

If i use the engine a lot i install servos to change directions

If I don’t use the engine a lot I just install a manual switch on the engine for Forward/Reverse

I left the hood off so you can see the esc/rx/battery -
