(...) it's perfectly safe to use and model railroaders used it quite a bit in the 50's however i would suggest using braided wire instead of solid core. from what i'm told braided wire has less DC voltage loss "or was it less resistance" over a (...) (20 years ago, 19-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains)

(...) When using events I tend to use a state model, and use the events to switch the state. So my main loop is: repeat forever if state 1 do stuff if state 2 do stuff if state 3 do stuff and then have eternal tasks defining the state. Works OK, but (...)
