vintage Novak receivers

Post by vintage AE »

Hey everyone

I'm working on a Gulf Racing schemed RC10L and wanted to put modern Novak electronics in it (brushless & Lipo), BUT I was thinking an orange receiver would look sweet. Is there any difference in a vintage FM receiver and a modern one? If not, anyone recommend a particular Novak receiver?

As I understand, if the Mhz is the same and ( specifically on the old "tuned" stuff ) you are close
enough to the original frequency then you are good to go- But if you just want orange, then I have 2-3 Novak Synthisized receivers that you can have.

it's a good colour scheme, which car/buggy/truck are you planning on putting it on?

I got mine on a 10L, but think it would be cool on a buggy

here is what I got so far Vintage AE's Composite Craft RC10L got custom decals ordered.
