The only RC I can find at local hobby shops is trigger grip CAR radios with large servos, or AIRCRAFT radios with dual sticks and micro-servos. Is there a problem using aircraft bands for trains? Is there somewhere I can get a Dual-stick (Single-stick) controller with micro-servos?

Chris: I hear your frustration in you message. Yes, it is a NO NO to use aircraft bands (frequencies) for car and boat and train equipment. If I had a airborne airplane that cost between $500 and $1000 bucks and it crashed because someone fired up their train transmitter on the air frequency

Worse than that. just up the road from me a relatively small R/C aircraft went out of control due to radio problems and killed a boy. Its not just the string and sealing wax models involved but large X4 engined scale models of WWII bombers and REAL jet engined model aircraft. Sam E Clark
