Gauge 1 Live Steam Aster BoB Winston Churchill. We had a fantastic run with this powerfull machine and did some nice shots from a camera running in front of it pulled by a Class 03. \What a joy to run on this beautiful track.
Wonderful video of a magnificent locomotive just starting in the hobby and really enjoying looking at all your videos ,while trying to decide which engine to buy next ( Merchant navy I think )
If you look around, you will find that besides the Merchant Navy there will be coming a model of the Tornado, a black five and next year an entry loco called victory. If you want to see more please go to my website www.exclusivemodels.nl. Thanks for your compliment about the video
first i felt that strange chuff tempo..then i checked engine type on aster roster.. it was 3cyliner' that's right? yes i was watch again vids..indeed could be hear like that..in by manual drive? no RC? anyway great&unbelievable!
You are right it is a three cilinder and you can hear it very good on this video. This model is without RC, so manual and I think it is great to to hear this powerful engine pull. The coaches are J & M onces and they are very heavy.
Does it have some form of on board servo motor to control the regulator and reverser remotely? Reason I ask is because of the speed changes without any changes from outside.
Hello, you are absolutly right this engine has radio control. All developed and build in by my friend Peter Spoerer. He is very keen on RC for Live steam engines. If you want to see more, please give it a look at my movies from the RC GWR 61XX tank engine.
peter Spoerer is doing this for his profession so I think he is the man to get in contact with if you want to know more. He has an excellent new developement called the TX 23 with a very small handheld transmiter which fits in your pocket.
