DCC Uncoupler

[MysticDragonForce]

I want it!!! :D

[colliecandle]

very nice!  BUT - does this rather fine coupling have the mechanical strength to keep a long rake of vehicles together? Seems a bit 'fragile', although as said, it's very nice and acurate being an actual 'buckeye'

@colliecandle

It certainly works with a rake of 6 Bulleids which is as long as my platforms will accomodate but i cannot see why it shouldn't work with more

@MrJezza31 Full instructions are contained on the website, rrcirkits, type "uncoupling" in the search box. The current limiting circuit is slightly different but the princple is the dame....john

[silverfox2358]

how much did it cost to make & how many have you made and fitted?

[jchurc]

@silverfox2358

I have only made three, they cost only a few pounds in componants but quite a lot of time and patience!

Good idea, it was only a matter of time before this was invented!

:-)

[NathansBackwoods]

i did not know someone already did this, i wanted to invent it.

[rhayvick1]

e as functions, has gears?

[AlexLangner]

thers no track but verry cool idear

[justinmroth]

that's awesome. how about using small motors and placing them in the truck as traction motors? would free up space inside of the shell

I can't say better than any of the others. That is the most fab-tastic thing I've ever seen for a model railway. You clever bu**er.

[CMRSclub]

That is soo awsome i need that in every single car!! haha I can see me switchin in the yard with out worring about stupid magnetic couplers and the hit and miss of those 5*****!

[pacbelt]

That is completely amazing! You need to market those devices, or at least the plans...

Ready to install units would revolutionize the HO scale market!

[mishymoshymoshymishy]

could you possibly post a video of you making one of these units and fully explaining it? because i think it would be more than helpful to any dcc railway modeller.

[257robts]

how much are those i want some for my layout

[jchurc]

hi I'm afraid its a scratch built device using a combiation of memory wire and a kadee coupler. The memory wire is activated by an output from the dcc decoder....John

[fitzio]

thats a good peice of kit

[whare1]

[BiK04]

[therailwayinspector]

[dibley1973]
