The other buggy is a b3. Lower rear plate, front c-hubs and arms are giveaways

That buggy is a B3.

IThe real mystery seems to be the esc and it's program box. There is very little mention of the brand anywhere on the web. I would love to have a manual on it so I could see the options with the programmer and how to use it. From what little info I could find, they were supposedly a very high end product.
I have that same ZETA ESC, but no programmer box. Has anyone figured out a HACK?

All of my Futaba receivers from the '80's except one look like that. The one exception is my very first surface radio set; the receiver was larger and J-plug receptacles were built-in kinda like the modern receivers. Anyway, I just assumed that the micro receivers with corded J-plug receptacles were rather common. Maybe not so common??
