Announcing the latest customer commission, a full size PBC (Power brake controller) setup based on the UK Class 168/0, plus the 170/323.
This is a to-scale controller which was designed to emulate as close as possible the real size and feel of the PBC handle along with the reverser and master key.
This ambitious project took several months of designs and development to ensure it felt just right and was up to standard. More importantly, this goes further than just a standard PBC, with changeable handles but also changeable notch settings to help cover a wide range of units and locos.
Features include:
- Two Changeable PBC handles, Turbostar style, and ball handle.
- Three notch modes; 7 power/4 brake, Smooth PBC mode (Neutral notch), and Full, smooth mode for locos.
- Works perfectly with both TS Classic and Train Sim World 5 using the official programming interfaces, with all UK units and locos., PBC and throttle only.
- Plug and play using the TS Controller software.
To recoup some of the development cost, I will be offering some for sale. Contact me for more information and pricing, and due to the size and scale of this, it will be in the region of £1000 (Stand extra). More products at a more friendly price range will be following soon.
