Reply to "Defined flex track arc in RR-Track"

Mark440OGR Forum Member

Matt -
Thank you for the directions for using the custom curve!!!! I searched the menus and never guessed 'custom curve' would be what I was looking for. I did have my excel open....and i had all the main numbers - all but that one important piece - the arc!

I went back an enhanced the table to provide the info for up to 8 pieces per half circle. A 45° arc in a single piece may be pushing the limits of the track. Now the table gies me the relevant info!!

BTW - all of this relates back to a conversation with you a couple years back about taking it outdoors. I finally have the final set of prototypes in hand (lots of trial...lots of error), and now the 'custom curve' provides the means to finish designing the initial layout. (I am trying to avoid using purchased curves and work with straight/flex track and #5/7.5 switches only.)

Again, thank you!
