I also have two Magnum Jr systems that were purchased subsequent to the aforementioned system that came with micro receivers with female G connectors on pigtails. Also, Novak ESC's and receivers - in fact nearly all of my radio equipment from back then had G connectors. The J connectors phased into existence around the time I left RC. I'm glad the J connector became the industry standard - much less complicated.

Next up electronics.

Thank you guys :)

Finally got the body cut and trimmed. Not sure if to paint this one. It goes well with the team car.
It´s a TBG body and wing (unfortunately the wing is the wrong one, but ok then)

Under the circumstances, I'd be very tempted to leave it clear. You already have another, much less pristine, graphite runner car -- right?
Like many other members here, I always like to follow the two-car method; one for the shelf, one for the dirt. :mrgreen:

Completely stock cars usually don't really do it for me. But the RC10 graphite always has. Nice job on the build.

Although, a Novak servo in an off-road vehicle is like nails on a chalkboard for me. But I'll try to overlook it. :lol:

Thanks scr8p!
Yeah I know. I wanted to use a Futaba 129 or 132, but I have none, so the Novak went in as a substitute and in line with color and brand it looks unified.

I have a nib Futaba 131s servo (J-plug). Popular servo for the time.

If you'd be interested........
