so my car has this white wire connector on the end on one of the wires, but im not sure which one goes with that. What was the type of white wire connector called that you connected to that other yellow one with a separate wire around 13:30. It looks like just a big white rectangle
It might have sat on the shelf a couple of yrs at the hobby shop before it was bought then it could have been ran for 10-15 yrs before it was put in, the closet so it may have only been about 15yrs or less since it's been powered up. But cool either way,
I can say it definitely wasn’t run much. Those are the original tires and there’s basically no wear and hardly a scratch on the chassis. I’ve put one pack through modern buggies and they look 10 times more worn out. I’d be surprised if this buggy had a single full pack run through it before it was parked.
Yeah - they’re pretty basic. The kind of thing you’d upgrade your mechanical esc to, back in the day. Novak and Tekin were pukka race stuff. You can find pdf instructions online for the futaba - if you’ve kept it. ☺️
Just found your channel, great vid. I just finished restoring my 1988 Kyosho Javelin! What great cars these are.
Awesome. I was racing pan cars right around then.
I have one of these. Original owner! Great video thanks!
Sick! I wish I would have kept some of my rc from back then.
Great video! Awesome soldering skills!! I hope you pulled that cool Lemans 240S motor, cleaned and lubricated it, its worth keeping!!!
I hope so too! Lol. This needs more time in front of the camera.
nice! side question, where did you get those scale ramps? those are neat
Thx! I make those 🤛🏼
@@crawlersncustoms wow, looks like I'll have to "git gud" 😁

That’s a standard old school tamiya connector with an XT60 connector (the yellow one).
Lock the trigger on the remote as if ur squeezing it then u can turn the screw on the ESC until it starts working
Thx. I’m pretty sure the esc would work if connected to a motor that didn’t intermittently not work.

Looks like a futaba MC112B esc.
Thx! I wasn’t aware futaba made escs. I only remember the tekins and novaks from back then.

@@Timson254 I did keep it. Where I put it, that’s an entirely different question 😳
