After I posted the first post, I started reading one of @Rusty Traque post about fixing the pilots. I realized that this unit came with screws and spacers that would allow me to fix them solid, so decided to go this route since I run mostly scale anyways.
What are some of your guy's your opinions on minimum track radius on these SD70 and ES44 engines?
I have a few of both, but I have never tested the min track radius with the pilots fixed, nor I have I ever read about anyone who has. I would guess about 30". I run them on our club layout with them fixed, but those are on the order of 40".
