I was just given this monster last week. I know nothing about these. I always used Futaba, or Acoms, but this seems like it might have been a quality unit back in the day. It is in great condition, and complete. Might use it for my old Wild Willy. Anyone know anything about these?

Those were decent pieces back in the day

I used one for a lot of years. Worked great for the backyard

[Tudorp]

yeah, they look like a pretty good unit. I might use it for my 80's Wild Willy.

Have you actually tested that thing as working yet?

Age & moisture ain't kind to electronics, especially trimpots (wheel & trigger) and capacitors.

Also one annoying particular about Hitec... not sure how far back this started but their servo splines are different to Futaba, Acoms etc. T kits today still don't support the Hitec splines afaik.
