Working signals

Post by JMORG » Fri Feb 24, 2017 5:46 pm

Hi all,
Looking into making working signals for the clubs portable exhibition layout.
Does anyone recommend motors/ servos' for signals?
They'll have to be removable for storage.

If it's an indoor line then servos are good value for money and you can get modules which will operate them with simulated 'bounce'. You can pick up Tower Pro SG90 servos very reasonably on eBay.

Would you recommend a way of hiding the servos?

If it's portable then presumably you could hide them underneath (??)
