"Universal" Wi-Fi Throttle, Part 4
Here is a short update on the TCS WiThrottle support. I've added support for Release/Dispatch. And also preliminary support for steal, which, I believe, applies only to Digitrax systems. I'd love to hear what you guys think about stealing a loco without asking. Is that a good idea?

Digitrax Release vs Dispatch
I'm just curious how many of you use the Digitrax Dispatch feature. My understanding is somewhat limited regarding this feature. As far as I can tell, it seems to apply mostly to older throttles that only supports 2-digit addresses.
So, does anyone use this? Or do you mostly ignore it and use release?
"Universal" Wi-Fi Throttle, Part 2
I'd like to update people on where we're at with building the new throttles, and also get some input. Above is a rendering of a design for the "basic" throttle. More information in the next post.
"Universal" Wi-Fi Throttle
For about two years I've been working on a Wi-Fi throttle that will work with any JMRI system. I had a working throttle about a year ago, but got side tracked. I'm now back working on it and would like to get input from people. This is a project I'm doing by myself, and there is a model railroad manufacturer who is potentially interested in selling it for me. First of all, here is a rendering of the next generation (I'll post some photos of previous iterations below):
