ARISTO-CRAFT WALK AROUND CONTROL SYSTEM
Posted by mgilger on Friday, February 11, 2005 5:15 PM
I would appreciate comments on anyone using the Aristo-Craft CRE-55473 (ART-5473) transmitter, and CRE-55471(ART-5471 receiver. I'm thinking about moving in that direction, but before I jump, I would appreciate positive and negative comments.
Thanks,
Mark

I always buy the 5470 set when aristo has their sale. which if you buy the set you recieve a 2nd reciever free + $10 shipping .
I have 6 units in battery cars and they work fine. I used to use them for track power but now all battery.
If you have a large GRR then you will need the metal annenta for better range.
I also use RCS 10 amp unit and like it as well.
You need the 10 amps to run lash-ups either track or batt powered.

Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?
