Scored a Novak NER-2S receiver today along with a Novak NESC-T1

I know it's not what was used, but it's something to fill in the space until I find a correct ESC...

Also wish Mother Nature would work with me. No sun here in Michigan for my peroxide bath. Makes for a frustrated Kooz! :lol:

Looks like we're suppose to have some sun here in Michigan for the next 2 days. Time to prepare my peroxide bath! :wink:

Will post pics soon hopefully. Should also be receiving some of my vintage electronics in the mail here soon too!

if you have a desk lamp handy you can go to anywhere that supports exotic pets and find a UV bulb made for reptile enclosures. itll do the same thing as our yellow sun. if i remember correctly some came in other colors like red for nocturnal breeds. :roll:

I read that as well. Been looking for lamps, but notice mother nature is suppose to bring us some sun. If this doesn't work I'll go to the lamp idea next. Thanks for the info though. I was looking for UV lamps for plants not reptiles. Never thought of that. :roll:

FML! :twisted:

Looks like I bought a NER-2S Novak Receiver with a J-Style connection and not a G-Style connection!

Ughhhhh anyone need a receiver? :lol:

Newbie mistake I guess! :oops:

Scr8p thanks for the reply...I have a magnum senior 3pg radio that is all original and was manufactured in 1984. This model came with two s131 and one s128 servos. It's funny Ruffy mentioned a s32h servo...where did he get that from?
