| Quite sweet, this. Personally, I would say this belongs in both space and trains, as it has a bit of both. Great detail, great moc. I'm jealous of your amount of replies, my posts never get any. :) Congrats on the first "spaceish" model. -Josh (19 years ago, 11-Apr-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | Re: DCC for the RCX

| (...) Resistors work fine due to the relative difference in cost. The accessory outputs of the earlier decoders are 100ma or so @28V or less, so at most you are dealing with 2.8 w loss (or 100 ma current draw). In order to drop from 14V to 9V, you (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.trains)
