But is this not the case?

 

So would I just then say use a CW-80 and set the output for the top speed I wanted, an that will work?

In the below example the throttle on the remote is set around 2/3 power, the transformer for the downhill run is set at 14 volts and the uphill run at 18volts.

 

 

I know you can operate the LionChief Polar Express with all functions as low as 7 volts. I don't know if it's advisable but it can be done.

This next video is of the preliminary power tests I did when I first got the set and was trying to determine if I would build the double spiral display for Christmas.

 

 

Hope this helps answer your questions
