Having had an Arduino Uno kicking around for some time doing nothing, I read up on DCC++
DCC Plus Plus - DCCWiki
It uses the Uno and a motor shield, so I bought the motor shield.
It interfaces with JMRI which can use the DigiTrainsPro android app, so just wondered if anyone has gone down a similar route to this before? I'm pretty savvy with sorting out all this stuff and don't wish to spend hundreds on a bells and whistle (ha ha!) system.
I'm interested in this for a 7mm Dapol 08 powered shunting plank, so the ability to expand is not necessary. I would have just used DC for this, but do like the idea of the possibility of lights and sound on the 08.
So far all in costs are less than £50 which suits me.
I tried searching on DCC++ but the forum software says my search keywords were too short, too long, or too common.
