TrickyD Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Hi all you good people, I'm Ricky from Brisbane and and getting more keen by the day to get into slot cars and am especially interested in digital. I'd like to know what all the acronyms are. I read the scorpious thread and see stuff like LC (which seems to be Lane Changer) .etc. What are others? Like SSD - what's that? Being a newbie this is a bit daunting. regards, Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickyD Posted December 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Thanks Ember! I'm having a look at scorpious to see which way I should go for a starter track. I don't know for instance whether scorpious works on SSD regards, Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyD Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Sorry to be a pain again... I'm looking at a post Rick put on SlotForum talking about the specs of the scorpious car chip PWM control method for motor drive and brake he wrote - what's PWM? regards, Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattcrackers Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Pretty sure it's Pulse Width Modulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
