'Wow, of course people were free to do what ever they wanted to... Also to cheapen it regular electrolytic caps have been used rather than tantalum.'

I guess he can see some differences in the components used compared to his.

I have finally managed to track down a Century Systems advert for their Marfet iteration. The examples of these I have seen do not appear to have the MFT lettering on the underside of the PCB.

CAT SWB&XL, Meteor (x3), RC10 custom, RC10 Graphite, Goldpan, 870c (x2), Works 91, Samurai, Pro Radiant (x2), Mini Mustang&Maxima, Mid Turbo, TOP Hybrid , Coyote, Hot Trick Optima, Supercharge, Brimod, 'Rory Cull' Hotshot, SRB.

I just received a Nosram Dominator RVHF. Sold as full working order, it only works forward and no brakes at all. Can these be repaired ? It's an old school circuit board inside I'd guess so how hard can it be?
Anybody ever repaired an old school ESC...

Another cool ESC came my way this week.

It was offered to me by the father of Rory Cull, the well known British driver. It took me a while to work out what it was as I hadn't seen anything like it before. The ID clue came from the DNS 17a coding on...

Getting back into rc for me feels like being put into a deep freeze for 25 years, then suddenly getting thawed and tossed onto the street and seeing flying cars and kids on hover boards.

As far as I knew, my Tekin 411 esc was so high tech and new,...

Hi folks,
I have an Nosram Timeout discharger. I wonder if anybody knows why there are 3 leads on the input?
They are red,black and blue.
I use it sometimes just using the red and black, but I wonder what the blue was for?
Was it for saddle packs?

Hello All,

What period correct bodies are available at the moment for pre 10T trucks, I'm looking for something more MT than ST?

Does anyone know what bodies came with each conversion, Proline, Andys, JG etc?

Cheers.

Last post

Cheers, good to be back.

I saw that thread, they're all nice bodies but just a bit too stadium / race truck for my liking, I'm looking for something a little more Blackfoot style.

I've had a good look at TBG who seem to have a few that might fit...
