Awesome, thanks for posting. I am thinking of adding a small setup to my layout, curious how low the wire can be under the cars, for example could this be used to cross under train tracks and have crossings?
The wire have to be installed on the top of the road, really 0.2~0.3 mm "covering" allowed. If you want to cross a train tracks you need to place a small wire between the rails. The cars can run 2-3 mm without wire, but a straight direction is recommended.
hello and congratulations! at 2:23 does the white chimney stop because the yellow truck passes over the electromagnet and activates the other electromagnet of the yellow truck?
Yes, there is a reed sensor in the path of the yellow truck (marked with blue dot) before the crossing and it activates the stop magnet for the white truck to avoid the accident in the crossing
Aber läuft alles automatisch oder verwalten Sie alles manuell über kleine Tasten? Sogar die Pfadänderung sagen wir mal. Welches Netzteil verwendest du? Volt?
This is a traditional Faller test layout. There are REED sensors on the "primary" road (where you can see the small circles on the line) and STOP magnets under the "secondary" road (+ sign near the line). When the vehicle run over a sensor starts a timer (5-10 sec) while the electronic magnet active and blocking the traffic above. More pictures can be found on my N scale modelling FB page: facebook.com/antonmodell
The original Faller direction switch is based on an electric coil which is elevating a metal rod if we activate it. Without this small metal the cars running straight, if the rod is elevated the cars changing the directon accordingly. There is another solution using servos, but servo control needs more precise controlling.
@elviotammurrello9108 The minimal radius is 150 mm officially for Faller Car Systems, but we can go down to 65~70 mm in N scale. There is a high chance to loose the truck below 60 mm radius.
with license (I'm using the driver) I have no fluency in foreign languages, only the Portuguese. I do not have tutorial material for apprentices in my language, I ask the friend if he would be able to help with sketches of drawings that I can interact with the material to be used in addition to electronic assembly material, welds and everything I can Can you make a diorama next to yours? Would you help me? I'm sorry for my daring. I await your return, I hug
Hi, I do not really understand what help you need….the electronics behind this setup 100% based on the original Faller components (161651 Traffic control box, 161675 Stop magnets and magnetic sensors, 161677 Direction-change coil).

@@BARRY77fullgas All control are automatic with sensors and timers. The cars are battery operated, no voltage in the steering wire.
Class.
toll !!
How come the replies are blank?
So awesome. Is this the digital version or the regular? I need to know how you get the vehicles to stop for incoming traffic lol

I wish the faller Car System was made for larger scales. That said, how is the switching controlled at the diversion where the dark circle is ?

Interesting and very creative idea.

It's digital?
No, this is an analog system (iron wire follow-up with magnetic steering)
