I got about 5 NIP. Looks like eBay going to be flooded with them soon

I remember back in 1979 saving my Pocket money and skipping School dinners so I can have the money to get My Sand Scorcher (Got re-united with it 15 years after I sold it!). I bought it for £59.95 at Beaties in Swindon as it was on offer as the Rough Rider was going for £69.99. I had to wait another 3 months until I bought the radio gear (Acoms MK I)

Tamiya Teu-101bk connecting issues
kevinthegerbil replied to rundownbassman92's topic in All things electric...
Green Wire is Negative while the Yellow one is positive. On some Kit 540's ( I can't remember which type) there's normally a small white dot on the Motor endbell by the Positive terminal. I Hope this helps -

Member #107 reporting here Joined in 2002. Still doing the collecting and the M-Chassis racing. Still a paid up member and read the forums regularly. The Tamiyaclub Kidderminster meetings was just A.C.E. be good if another one could be arranged for the 10th year (hint hint) -
I first met Dez at the Ardent 24hr Race this year where he was racing in an rival team to me. He was always laughing and joking and was a pleasure being round him. Truly a dedicated RC'er if I ever knew one! My thoughts go to his Family and Friends.

kevinthegerbil replied to Singapore_959's topic in General discussions
I agree with you there sosidge. I was interested in the M-Chassis racing there and emailed the organisers. No reply and found out a few weeks later that the Venue was in administration. -

Paul (Hedge), I've got almost all the 'Radio Race Car' and 'Model Car Monthly' Magazines from the early 80's. If you can give me a weeks notice I can bring them down from Swindon to the Poole RC club. Kevin

I keep finding asphalt and grass...
kevinthegerbil replied to VagabondStarJXF's topic in General discussions
It's not near the Big transmitter aerial to the North of the Uffington White Horse? I commute from Swindon to Wantage via Lamborne so I pass that place around 7:45am almost every morning. There is also an RC aircraft club near by. If so, I keep an eye out for you then, Twinset ;-) -
They are Acoms crystals - Out of the MK1, II, III systems. They can be used on modern 27MHz AM systems, although the case on the transmitter crystal will need unclipping.
