To complement this exciting new device, RCS will be selling a simplified version that does not require programming.
They will be 38 mm x 18 mm x 10 mm and fitted with screw terminals on the Power IN - Motor OUT connections.

The RCS # SIMPLON Rx/ESC has four operating modes. These can be selected by using a supplied head shunt & switching the Rx/ESC ON - OFF to choose a Configuration Numbers (C/N) indicated by the Rx LED flashing.

MODE A. (C/N # 1)
Channel # 1 will be CENTRE OFF CONTROL, with channel # 3 a simple servo output.
MODE B.  (C/N # 2)
Channel # 3 will be CENTRE OFF CONTROL, with channel # 1 a simple servo output
MODE C.  (C/N # 3)
Channel # 1 will be the regulator (Speed Control) with Channel # 3 the Reverser on a separate Channel.
MODE D.  (C/N # 4)
Channel # 3 will be the regulator (Speed Control) with Channel # 1 the Reverser on a separate Channel.

The last two modes are LOW OFF CONTROL and replicate how a live steam loco works. As such they will be ideal for Live Steam operators who want to have a battery R/C loco readily available for those times they need to get something up and running quickly if visitors arrive.
SOUND TRIGGERS
All four modes have sound trigger functions on Channels # 2, 4 & 5.
Use the # DU-Tx1 handpiece for one sound trigger on channel # 5.
Use the # DU-Tx3 handpiece for three sound triggers.
Access to these sound triggers with a MyLocosound sound system will be via a supplied plug in cable.
Use the Micron # MR-603 for # DU-Tx5 & # DU-Tx7 Tx's.
Soldering will not be required.

More specs shortly.

This extra speed control output ability will allow users to take full advantage of the upgraded RCS Duplex handpieces that are now available. Run two locos at the same time from one Tx.
The handpieces are marked Cab "A" & Cab "B".

A higher voltage version (up to 5s) # SIMPLON-HV will be available later in 2022.
Also planned are ESC only versions (No Rx) so they can be used with any brand of R/C. They will be called # OMEGA-11 & # OMEGA-12
