New RCS R/C operating system.
Posted by TonyWalsham on Thursday, September 9, 2004 3:23 AM
It has been 6 years since RCS had a major revision to the way the system works.
I am now proud to announce two major changes.
Firstly the power output of the TX handpiece has been upped to give twice the range of the previous model.

The new model is distinguishable from the earlier versions by a coloured star on the back.

Secondly, I have three new on board Motor Driver PCB's available.
10 amps, 5 amps and 3 amps.

These are designed to go inside the loco with the batteries.
The new µp operating programme eliminates one IC and now provides 256 different address codes per frequency.
MU'ing is a snap.
Top speed, acceleration & braking rates are all rpogrammable.
Three sound trigger functions are built in.
Also built into the system is an automatic shuttle for those that would like to just switch on and run. You can choose linear or back'n'forth. Stopping and starting is determined by appropriately placed magnets in the track.

For full details please visit the RCS website http://www.rcs-rc.com

I will be glad to answer any questions offline.

Thank you for your attention.

Tony Walsham (RCS).

Best wishes,

Tony Walsham

I don't know why I have not seen this thread before now. I don't usually come to this forum on this site.
I have had very good luck with your 10 amp unit. I run 3 Dash-9s with it and no problems on getting power to the engines. As you know i use 18 volt tool batteries for power in a trailing car.
Also thanks for all your help over the years.

Is it REAL? or Just 1:29 scale?

Long live Outdoor Model Railroading.
