I'm going to repurpose a USB volume controller and turn it into a speed controller for the model railway - using the DCC-EX central unit (see episode 3) and the Engine Driver app on your smartphone. I'll show you everything else you need to recreate it in the video. What else does today's video have in store for you? For all of you nostalgic people, I'm going to set up the pseudo speed controller so that you could believe you're driving with a conventional analog speed controller - with a real nostalgic feeling. *************************** Furthermore, a huge thank you goes out to everyone who watched and liked my last video in such large numbers. It went through the roof! *************************** But you can see everything else in the video. Have fun and safe travels! Note: I have no advertising contracts with the manufacturers and distributors of the products shown. You can also use other components (cables, USB volume controllers, etc.). But be careful!: Anyone who recreates this does so at their own risk.
