You don't mean that 'terrible' one? - According to certain members of an area group?
If so, I have probably worked out who you are too?

Re: Loco kit
After a conversation with Steve... i have bought a kit.
Now,
Don't get too excited! - I have bought many, many kits.. Mostly, I open them, check the contents, then pack them away again.
I just need more tu-its.. Round, rather than the inferior hexagonal ones!

Right...
I have read through the build - thread.
To avoid embarrassment (mine) I will take this to a conversation with Steve..

Re: Loco kit
Hi Steve,
Are the panels all printed?
If so, resin or deposition?
What motor have you used / supply? - voltage?
Thanks,
Phil. P

Re: List of Suppliers
Hiya!
As I read this.. There should be a list (probably needing work?) which I would assume to be in the 'bottom' section of the index.
I don't see anything there? - Is it me, or are you working away in the background?
Thanks,
PhilP.

Another folk enthusiast here, who often attends the Rochester Sweeps Festival. There seems to be a close harmony between rail enthusiasts, real ale drinking, morris dancers and canal boaters. OK... Who has a video of ; Real Ale drinking Morris Men, dancing on a Narrow Boat roof? :thumbleft: :lol:

Although it may be possible, it is stainless steel, after all..

Hello Gareth,
Is this still languishing in a box somewhere, or has it made it to an evilBay listing?
Thanks,
Phil Partridge.

Re: Charge socket wiring
If you look at your charging socket from the rear (wiring side).. Arrange it so the tags are left, right, and bottom.. Then: The Right tag is Red (positive) - from the battery / charge - switch. The Bottom tag is Black (negative) - from the battery. The Left tag is the negative to your reversing swi...

Neil said: Using a viper loco 10 ESC. Hi Neil, Having looked on the Mtronics site..

Re: Micron radio control
The idea was that if a Purchaser used a different radio control system, they could 'just' swap-out the Rx.. That was when I was first involved.. They decided I was too small a Supplier, in the end. :-{ Depending on age of the OP's Boulton, it may have a 'black lump' as an ESC? - If so, I will email ...

Re: Micron radio control
If you have a Rx102, that is 'just' a receiver.. - Somewhere in your Boulton, there is a ESC (Speed Controller) as well! - This will need to be reconfigured (if possible) to allow you to use the combination of controls you wish to.
Come back with the ESC details, and 'we' can help you out.

Re: Vale of Ffestiniog
If this is a recent acquisition, it should either be a Re65c or a Rx66a. - Supposing it is Deltang gear, of course.. y guess, If it is a Rx65c, and you have used a 12V SLA battery, you will probably have damaged the receiver controller.. To prove this, you need to be able to see the Rx.. 1. Switch o...
