Nice servos still in the bag. Noticed the price tags, D&J hobby. Are they still In business? I haven't set foot in there in years. I grew up in San Jose lived at 18th and Julian my whole life until I moved to Texas.

A few of the hobby shops in my area sold top notch stuff. I bought out most of their vintage stock and in turn sold some of it off on ebay to help fund more stuff I really don't need.
Impressive collection of vintage electronics. I´m really a fan of those units and old motors and electronics in general but all of my Novak servos and ESC are used. Most are mounted in my old cars anyway.
A note on the left 1X ESC, if you ever plan to run this one in a car please switch the position of the heatsinks. The small heatsink should touch just the single brake FET at right side, otherwise you will short out the ESC.

Shodog, your SRBs are stupendous! You nailed it on the details man.
I have loved the RC10 since it came out. I only have a few of them but I have done my best to make each one of them really nice. I seek out rare and cool parts to make each one unique.

I've got one of those old Aristocraft Challenger radio's with the matching receiver and 2 servo's all with 'those goofy big white plugs' 8) Think there's any interests in that or is it scrap?

Just a though, If i treated the numbers like a brushless, the 25k rpm over what is likely 7.2 V puts the motor a little over 3500KV rating which is about 11 turns. I'm trying to find out if the motor is or isnt 11 turns b/c i'd really prefer reverse...
