RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Hi guys,
I found one of these in my collection and I think it predates most of my stuff. Any idea of vintage and does anyone have one in better shape? I wouldnt mind making replicas. The cells are 1200SCR Sanyos.

Well I see that there is an Ad and the Ad car for the battery pack here:

So it looks like mid 1980's ?

Looks like the one I got w/ my first RC10CE ... I think that was circa 1991. Damn thing was a champ and worked well considering back then I had no clue how to take care of a battery.
