I am running a standard Z 21 control system and a standard Z21 booster with my layout split in two and I love the flexibility and the ease of use of this system,
I am using also an Acer touchscreen monitor as well as a mix of Ipad and I phone for the controls and can happily run 5 or six loco's at one time at a reasonable slow speed. Points and signals are an easy task to alter and setup and programming cvs so simple.
My one downside however is the limitation with 3.5 amps power on each section and am keen to try a bigger booster with CDE connections with an eye on the new Massoth booster. Unless you have any other ideas or warnings.
 
Thanks Guys for sharing your experiences.
The Z21 excites me still after 2 years of running and the addition of the touchscreen monitor makes it great for big arthritic fingers.
Couple of things I would like to see changed is a copy facility so you can easily add locos to another layout or even when your pal brings a loco same as yours but on a different number a simple edit-copy-paste within the app would be brilliant.
Still its not really a complaint because the rest of the versatility is magic.

Has any one tried the double header function ?
And what about the route planner ?

Trying to create a Swiss feel on our exhibition show layout and here are some starters
These all run so well on the Z21
