110 - Shelfington - Servo Motor Control Thoughts

Welcome to Ian's N Gauge channel!

In a previous video I showed how I was going to install micro servo motors in order to switch points on Shelfington.

In this video I’m going to share my thoughts on the hardware I’m thinking about using to control the servos.

Thanks very much for watching.

Ian
