While a smartphone app definitely saves Lionel money developing new hardware, there’s a distinct disadvantage from a user experience point of view. With my Cab2, DCS and DCC remotes, I don’t need to keep looking down to know that I’m touching the right area of the screen - I can feel the buttons and the throttle and know where they are. With an app, I’m always looking back at the screen to verify I’m in the right spot. The move to “touch screen everything” is not necessarily a positive step.
This smartphone stuff really sucks at controlling trains! Other manufacturers (TCS UWT-100, ESU CabControl, Roco WiFi Multimaus, etc...) can make handheld remotes for their control systems and so should Lionel, we want a handheld Cab3 remote!
Good afternoon Kan what I like all your videos kan excellent video keep doing more I like all the videos I always buy a train world when you in avenue m. Also you're on McDonald's avenues. And also do mail order that always like it keep doing your videos they are very excellent

Thank you I agree

A new cab 3 remote would be nice when wifi is down...wish lionel would step up to the plate

Is Lionel really projecting a 10 month wait till release even on pre-orders? 😳
Doesn't Lionel claim this super system is coming out in 12/2022?
I was told in September (2022) that my order for Base 3 will out in December of 2023 !
