hiya group,

I've got a hornby 08 shunter (hornby decoder in it), i like the slow speed it runs at. However if i put it into reverse (without slowing it down) it stops dead and revereses. If poss I'd like it to gradually slow down and then reverse and not stopping dead. With other locos they slow down gradually before reversing.

I've not been brave enough to tinker with any cv values before but might give this a go. Any help advice suggestions would be great.

thx

bren

thx zmil & noggin,

I tried a few cv values for accel and decel and it worked a treat. Shunter no longer stops dead but gently slows down before setting off in opposite direction - well chuffed.

I've got a few older locos which I rarely run out as there a bit too jerky at lower/slow speeds, any advice on helping these run better by tinkering with cv values?

thx again, made my day that working. I've got a dynamis and my learning curve in dcc is getting better. I entered values on the programming track rather than risk the scary main programming track. I car'nt read back the cv values (as i've not got the dynamis pro) but at least I can put them in.

thx again
