My I ask why you chose to use a separate ESC rather than one of the Deltangs with it built into the receiver?
Unfortunately, they're no longer in production, and extremely hard to find, anymore.

Consequently, I'll be using the same Rx and ESC combo as Jimmy, in some coming projects; they appear very simple to set up.

Marvelous work, Jim. Must say the blog is really nicely done, too. :thumbright:

Looks very much at home on the railway. I added weight to my Ford railbus with white metal seated figures but they were 1:19. Not sure if there are any suppliers of 1:20.3 seated white metal figures ....

Philip, apologies I missed your question, but Aaron has answered it correctly, also with the Deltang there can be some fiddly soldering, one false slip and it is £60.00 gone, these are pre-wired, and plug and socket.
