Digital decoders and jewellery have at least on thing in common: With all the silver – or gold plated rhinestones for sale, it’s not easy for some people to make an informed choice. The sophisticated buyer will go for the real thing, therefore being sure of its lasting value.
The same holds true for the decoders of our LokPilot series: Each one provides you with unique functions that will easily convince you. This is where ESU’s leading edge technology comes fully into play. Since its arrival in 2001, ESU LokPilot decoders have been used by thousands of satisfied customers. Well known model railroad producers, who factory-deliver their locos with built-in LokPilot decoders, may serve as reference for the superb quality of our decoders. LokPilot decoders are available in several formats, depending upon gauge or digital system.
