After nearly 10 years of tinkering with my 1950s American Flyer trains Frankentrain Laboratories has sold to a Flyer Hobbyist its first Next Generation S Level 1 Upgrade Kit. for the first time we have listed our NGS Level 1 components on a Web Site for ordering. Gum Road was selected to set up this first offering. You can see this Bundle offer at this link, frankentrainlabs.gumroad.com/l/lhqld
The Kit included a DC Field Conversion for the Vintage Universal Flyer Drive Motor. It will fit Pre War O gauge and Post War S gauge engines that use the rear mounted brushes. This DC Field reduces the Amp draw. We included a Digital DC Motor Reverse Controller. This is an upgraded Reverse Assembly with 5 Amp load capacity and operates in 4 steps, Fwd, Neutral, Rev, Neutral. We added an AC to DC volt convertor to drive the Motor Control Board from the Vintage AC track power. We also have a upgraded Vintage Smoke Lid with a Volt Regulator & Mounting adaptors for basic Flyer tenders.
