to Vettbass: I see you have very fine looking locomotives AND are having fun running them with R/C. You have the best of both worlds, and probably some very well tuned Asters. So glad to hear that someone with these finely crafted locomotives is trying R/C techniques with them. You may have to opt for stronger servos if your throttle valves are giving you grief. Don't know what loco you are referring to, so I don't know what fit problems you may have fitting them in. By the way, that throttle should wear in with time. Also check is there is a tightening nut for the throttle shaft gland, like there is on Roundhouse throttles. This may be able to be loosened without causing undue leakage, and make the throtle easier to operate with a servo. You do not say if you have tried out your 'Sandy' yet. Hats off to your wife for getting you what you REALLY want! Just a word on what to expect from it mechanically and electronically, Roundhouse locomotives RUN as well as Aster locomotives LOOK. (although both flavors can be made to run and look great). Would love to get the forwards. LES
