Were are your other trailers? I watch a video on you tube and it seemed like they were never going to stop. It must be nice to pul that many trailers with out any traffic but here it is a different story especially in the winter it seems that they gather around you like flys. Ed

Wireless system is from SS-Tronix in the UK. Allows for control of 1x servo as well as the lights, so have used this channel for the coupling on the A-trailer. Then the A-trailer also has an extra transmitter board to pass light signals through to the B-trailer.

The YouTube video isn't me, but I think I know the one you've seen!

My only other trailer is a box trailer, which I am modifying with running lights to make it more interesting!

How do you find the SS Tronix system? are you running it through a MFU?

SS-Tronix system is running through (or from) the MFU - has been faultless since I bought it a few years ago. I have now converted all my trailers with SS-Tonix wireless kit (I wouldn't have done this if I had any dramas!). I think he has since redesigned the Tx board so its much smaller than the design I have....

That is a great idea, and correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is the first B-train tanker on the forum. At least, it's the first I've seen! Congrats! Looks good!
