The replies about the high cost of a tactile hand throttle ring true for many of us.? If we pay hundreds for every version of loco we desire, why not similar for a well tuned wireless throttle?? On the path of reaching a conclusion, you might try the MagicSee R1 BT game controller which can be paired to a smartphone running Engine Driver.? Cost is under $10 from your favorite Chinese vendor.? Seems to work well for running mainline power.? Speed is joystick controlled.? ?An E-stop and direction button are assigned as are some other basic functions.? ?Once your consist is set up on your smartphone, you put the phone in your pocket or leave on the table and drive with the R1 Game Controller.? ?

Are there other (better?? Dial for throttle?) alternatives to the R1 that work with Engine Driver???
