Sundays are made for 80's.

I still need to get some rear axles and stuff it with electronics, but I skipped ahead and painted up a body. . PXL_20220528_155640158.jpg . PXL_20220528_160423032.jpg . I think I'm going to convert back from hyperdrive to gears because this body has a cutout for the gear cover, and I really don't h...

Share your favorite ESC from your collection vintage or contemporary. I'm not a collector, but in my quest for period-correct electronics I've come to appreciate them over the decades. ESC's never get reissued and there is something very timeless about them. Their technology made a big difference in...

Great idea for a thread, and a really cool esc you have!

The LRP ICS and black Novak Cyclone are 2 of my favorites.

This was one of my favorites, hardly any information out there about them.

I could be wrong but from memory it was the smallest ESC of the time and pre-dates the Novak Atom.

Was my first legit ESC. 410-M5 Sport s-l300.jpg Most elusive/lusted after/will never find/can't afford if found/not actively searching for/most lusted after: TRX Pro XL-3 Pic courtesy of danielhr77, over on the traxxas.com forums 43ygQw.jpg Crud I failed to read, "from your collection".......

My Novak T-1X is the pride of my ESC collection. Other racers had better motors, better battery packs, peak chargers, PCM radios, faster buggies, and actual driving skills 🤣 but I had this bad mo fo T-1X in my Turbo Optima so I could run way better motors than I actually owned. With my previous Nova...

Great thread! Very cool to see all these posts. For me it's the 410-M1c and 410-HPc.....

Well, much like Frankentruck, my go-to ESC throughout all of my racing days was a Novak T-1X. I started out with it in my 870c in around 1988 and ran it right up until i stopped racing with my works 91 in probably about 1995. it never once failed me or let me down, remained competitive and i still h...

If you're after home-made... check out this witchcraft before your very eyes then..... Ian Mullaney over in the UK has taken it upon himself to save space in his ProCAT for vintage class racing by building an esc into his chassis.... :shock: He just sent me the pics to post up on here. The guy is a ...

I don't think I really have a "favorite" esc. Throughout my racing days I was pretty much a Tekin guy. 411p, 412p, P2, G9, etc. I did have a few Novak esc's like a T1x and a T4 in my early days that I picked up used. As for esc's in my collection, I'd probably go with something that is on ...

Great thread
For me it’s this last version of the 610-HRV

My first ESC was a Futaba MC112B for my Blackfoot..So it’s a personal favorite and gave me an interest for servo mount style ESCs. https://i.postimg.cc/dVw0w7b0/52-C9-C18-F-1553-4-E42-B28-D-E5-DB99-BC964-B.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/L8D8X9S3/9-C1075-C6-0370-4-CE2-9-E14-58744-C6574-E3.jpg My 2nd favori...

Took this picture of a couple of Steermans this morning: flying circus steermans.jpg Then proceeded to strap on a parachute and jump in the front of 751 there. Not my video of course, but same pilot, basically same plane, and many of the same maneuvers. Skip to 2:50 for the good part. Exph5qfLb18

This build will get rid of the slowness of the Bruiser, and the baby's toy of the Clodbuster....it will have big power!
