  Re: New page about #4548 Train Controller.
 
This looks a little complicated, teh inner port of the circle is the switch, but it also connects to the outer part, so you cannot just rewire it. And not using that part will cause to have power out at all times (which I guess is 1.25V, I donne (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

To tell you the truth your right that that direction should be part of the challenge, but some of these kids just don't listen! And there is aways some parent that wants their 2 year old to race, and I can't get them to turn it the right way at all. (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)
 
  New building... Earth Brown (Yoda's shirt)
 
Hi All, I just uploaded some pics of a new building, might take a couple minutes to show up. It's the one with the name that starts with "Earth". I used the Earth Brown (aka light brown or Yoda's shirt) for the first floor and did some stripes with (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New page about #4548 Train Controller.
 
What's wrong with the stock controller with both directions. Isn't that just a life lesson. And of course, perhaps, you can setup a pit crew behind the starting line (long live Death Race 2000!) ;D SteveB (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) You probably used one with regular diodes, where each diode gives a 0.7 voltage drop, which is standard. You could try Skottky diodes which IIRC give a 0.3 voltage drop each, leaving you with 8.4v. Other way would be to use some transistors (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)
