Class 86

Unread postby PapaXpress » Wed Dec 28, 2011 8:02 pm

Just started playing with the class 86 on the WCML and its quite the experience. I already watched the RSC video and read the manual on the 86 but I still have questions.

1) Without warning the wipers stopped.
2) I am having problems "tapping up". The fastest I have gotten the 86 is 46 mph.

I know I am probably driving this engine wrong and I just needs some more practice, but can anyone give me some more advice?

Your instrument to watch is the Ammeter; keep it at the top of the yellow, if the needle falls then add a tap ( literally tap the throttle key ). If adding a tap isn't really moving the meter anymore, once you've got some speed on, you can just hold the throttle in the run-up position to add a few at a time. The wipers could be anything!
