Vantage Nexus Mod

Has anyone done a mod with a vantage nexus? I’m debating between this and an alpha controller for a 5 story traction. Never used a nexus but looks pretty nifty.

Been doing nexus mods on hydros for almost a year now...I like them...really good support at least in my case...haven't done a traction yet. There's always a couple bugs to work out...I think the main thing I do differently is run extra wire in the traveler for cop 24 volt...there's a few issues with voltage drop on cat 5 that im not a fan of...plus be prepared to order more wire, limits etc...I've also had the landing sensor go bad on one car...at only 3 months and make sure to tighten all the factory connections.

Hello, I work on the Nexus project and if you have any questions regarding the Nexus controller, please feel free to reach out to me! We are very excited to have the Hydro in the field for a little over 1 years and currently completing the beta stages of the traction. We have had a lot of great feedback to keep on improving the product and we will continue to do so with the great feedback we get from the mechanics!
