MSS / Mamod RC

Post by -steves- » Tue Aug 16, 2011 1:29 pm

Although I have managed to find a couple of pictures where people have RC'ed their MSS / Mamod loco, the bes tI can seem to find only shows the front end change, some of which were very net, and of course, some of which, wern't , lol

I am after fitting a seperate in cab regulator, making that RC and making the reverser block RC too, to give me a 2 channel RC loco, one switch will give me backwards and forwards, the other will regulate the amount of steam.

I am looking for photo's or at least help on where people have put the servos,' rx's and batteries on thier setups. I think I can manage the front to back linkage and the in cab servo, but no idea on the rx and batteries unless I get a tender or something for it and make a quick release connector. It would be nice to see what others have done in the past :)

Thanks
Steve

Colombine on the MHLR is a great example of tender fitted rc
