Probably the single most important piece of vintage RC information less the introduction of the RC10 itself! Thanks for listing that!

it's definatly gonna help someone that is trying to match electrics to their year of car.

Excellent.

But, where's my 610-HRV? Is it a merely a figment of my imagination? I see it on my floor waiting to be installed in my runner.

I wish all the major companies had a page like this. Trinity, Futaba, Airtronics, Tekin, RPM, etc.

Novak improves their reverse voltage protection design by introducing solid-state Reverse Voltage Protection (RVP) to the market in their M-series speed controls. With this technological advance, users no longer need to replace fuses or repair blown Solder Pop Fuses. Another fully digital, high-frequency speed control makes its debut, the 410-HPc, which is the first Novak ESC to use the newest technology HYPERFET transistors. The 410-HPc sweeps both the 1992 On- Road and 1993 Off-Road World Championships--the most World Titles of any ESC on the market. The 610-RV speed control is updated with a fully digital, high-frequency design, and introduced as the 610-HRV speed control.

this needs to be stickied somewhere... something like this shouldnt end up buried and a couple pages back.

you think we need a tech-only section? or should i rename the scans archive to "tech and scans"?

lemme know.

[MelvinsArmy]

Maybe we could put it in with the "useful links" sticky I made? Or maybe if we made a whole section where each link gets it's own thread? A links to good info section?

That's great, thank you very much!

Anyone know when the first Tekin ESC was released???

Tekin were being used at the races down here before Novak - I guess that was around 1984 (maybe '83).

It seems like I remember a story about Mr. Novak being a former employee of Tekin... Any truth to that?
