RE: Having Fun with the RailDriver.....

How did you get the labels on the wiper and headlight switches?How well did your throttle calibrate? Mine acts like it's connected with a rubber band ... it's impossible to move only one notch at a time. I have to move the handle from idle halfway to N8 to get it to "wake up" and then it jumps to N4 to N7, never the same twice in a row. Same with dynamic brakes. The other controls seem to work fine though.krswen

>How did you get the labels on the wiper and headlight
>switches? Easy, Just cut very straight at the bottom of the label and carefully place the top half over the pointed tip and and work your way towards the back of the label where you cut it and press it down evenly. >How well did your throttle calibrate? Mine acts like it's

>though. I had the same problems, too. It's different than the keyboard. I would move the throttle slowly and watch your HUD until you see the nmbers change. I know it's a pain but, You'll have to get used to it.
I hope this helps. Ken
