This is everything I wanted in a control system and is very easy to program and operate. The short antenna makes the Plug and Play receiver easy to install, and the transmitter fits in a shirt pocket. The long radio range, MU function, soft reverse for switching, and built-in auxiliary controller for sound are features I was looking for in a Radio Control system. I was so impressed I sold my radio controlled DCC equipment and bough a six pack of the Revolution receivers to install in my other diesels.

I too agree, good article and even better product. I’ve installed three receivers and everything works like adds and articles says it will.

I give it 5 stars

I would like to know why Aristo does not make this unit compatible with the QSI sound system in their catalog. I have installed two of these sound units and I am told the QSI sound will not work with this controller. I really wanted to go with this controller till I found this out.

Sounds good, worth another look. Has anyone created a market for used TE xmtrs and RXs? Just joking. Guess I’ll just wait until the piggy bank can stand it. Very informative article - good writing.

Waits still for an EMD U 30 c or an Turbine

I had this put into a Center Cab diesel,pre - DCC model. Runs great but there is no speaker provided. Anyone know a supplier for a speaker with the right plug on it for the Revolution ?
