Hello all,
Here is a small review about the motorization of 9V switch points prepared
originally in French for friends from Freelug. With the help of Didier
Enjary for translation, Gaël Frazier for a final proofreading and
Jean-Louis Bergamo (webmaster of Freelug) for publication. Thank you guys
:-)

That’s very interesting reading. Thanks.
But I’ve never had to modify points to use my controller design. It does take
some time to find elastic bands with the right amount of tension, but it can
deliver just enough power to switch an unmodified point, and still slip if it is
left on too long.
I prefer a directional control with this over-run protection, rather than an
oscillating type with a semaphore.
