I’ve spent the last few days reading up about Arduino, how DCC works, DCC++ and how it all works together. I’m excited to say that I’ve purchased an Arduino Mega and a Motor Shield to start the process of computer control of my DCC layout.
I’m ordering an Octocoder today (hopefully) to go with my TAM Valley Octopus3 to enable DCC control as well.
Still waiting on servos & servo extensions to arrive from China…
The more I research DCC computer control, the more I’m astounded by how much there is available for it, either customisable or off the shelf.
More details to come when I get it all assembled.
UPDATE: Servos have arrived – getting closer
UPDATE: Arduino Mega has also arrived today – fast delivery!
