There is a part 2 that is worth watching also.
Tuning Kadees 1
Genuinely fascinating. Over years of HO operation I was never able to get dependable coupler operation. Now that I'm in 1:29, the cars seem stable and heavy enough that I'd like to try some switching again, and this video convinces me that Kadee is the way to go for that. I'm just not sure my old fingers are capable of the fine adjustments that seem to be necessary.
