Hey Guys,
A few years ago, there was an article in the forums here about how early ESC's were made with some components of a servo. I believe it was Tamiyadan that did the original thread? Anyway I have a project in front of me that I would like to build a "replica" of one of those early ESCs for, and I cannot find the thread for the life of me! Does anyone have a link to it? I would really appreciate it as it had the exact information I am looking for. Thanks!!!
