Simple, Convenient, Fun
You will be delighted to discover that the AirWire
Drop-In series of decoders are designed to fit into a
specific locomotive chassis using the same
mounting holes and screws. Once mounted, simply
plug in the wiring harnesses into their matching
sockets. Installation has never been easier.
Battery and battery charger hookup is just as easy
because we include all the necessary plugs and
connectors. We even include the heatshrink tubing
for neat, reliable and professional-looking
installations.
But, we’ve gone one step further. The Phoenix P8
sound module is the latest addition to their product
lineup. Included with the sound module is a
prewired plug that connects directly into the Drop-
In decoder’s matching socket. Connect the speaker
and your are ready to enjoy premium sound effects
from one of the leaders in large scale sound.
The AirWire Drop-In decoders have all of the
features of the G2 decoder and more. The
supersonic motor drive provides smooth, silent and
powerful drive to the motors. Built-in cruise
control maintains constant speed up and down your
railroad and special slow speed algorithms enable
the locomotive to crawl at a tie a minute. Easy to
adjust speed curves allow for precise speed
matching of different types of locomotives. In
short, the Drop-In is a rugged and dependable
decoder perfect for heavy duty outdoor railroads.
The Drop-In decoders expand your options for
locomotive lighting. In addition to complete
remote control of the lights, we have also included
lighting effects such as mars lights, gyra lights,
dome flashers, strobes and rotary beacons.
Although they might not be applicable to the
locomotive, they are present should you wish to
hook them up separately.
For you F3 locomotive fans, you’ll appreciate the
addition of a B-unit version of the F3A Drop-In
decoder. Simply install the F3B decoder and
attach the B-unit to the A-unit with the supplied 2-
conductor cable. It has all the capabilities of the
F3A Drop-In decoder and each decoder can be
independently fine tuned for desired performance
and precise speed matching.
