I recently added RC to my Ruby/Forney using Spektrum DX6 radio with HiTec HS-81MG servos. It really makes it easy to control the loco on grades. (I have up to 3 1/2% grades on my layout) The throttle sticks some and will not quite close all the way but it is easy to stop by putting the Johnson bar in neutral. There is a bracket available which comes with 2 servos installed. (advertised in Steam in the Garden) The tender on my Forney made it easy to install the on board components.
