Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

I picked up a TERX 75AM and TSC 411P set. They came attached to a nice 12L carrying case. I'll probably look to see if someone else needs this nice 12L because I have a few of them already.

Re: What Speed Controllers Were Available Circa 1980?

That Auto Modeller article is interesting, didn´t saw so far. Well, I personally made my own ESC when I started into 1/12 scale cars in 1978, as I didn´t like the MSC. But this doesn´t count for the question. Delta Autodrive was very interesting ESC but far from being the first. Their small 1/18 sca...

Re: Composite Craft Predator Lynx re-build

If you look for Schumacher turnbuckle on amain.com you should see a nice selection of length options. Several of us use them for replacement of Associated 4-40 turnbuckles.

Refurbishing electronics

In the hunt for good deals I tend to pick up used ESCs and receivers in need of a little rework. These 2 Novak ESCs needed the standard case cleanups, wiring unsnarling, receiver connector repair, and power switch replacement. For the switches I wasn't satisfied with the standard options that always...

Bolink Round Tracker: Project Awesome Bill From Dawsonville

Picked up a Bolink Round Tracker a little while back just to add to the pan car collection. I picked the car up mainly because many of the nylon pieces are engraved with "minicars" which I believe was a Swedish brand bought out by Bolink, but the fact that the markings are still there peak...

Cherished electric motors

Share pics of motors that you particularly like in your collection! I will start off and share two in my collection that I particularly like simply because they look beautiful (having nothing to do with performance of course). Look at all those vents to keep things cool on both the endbell and the c...

1985 IFMAR Race Report from Japan with stunning photos

I was lucky to get this vintage RC book in my collection recently. The report and photos report of the first-ever 1985 IFMAR world champion race is simply amazing to me. I came across a PDF of the photos on the internet a while back, blown away by the quality of the color photos. In the 1980s Japan ...
