Which, if any, electronic components from the original Wild One do you have in the car?  Receiver, mechanical speed control, servos?  If so, what brand and models are those components?

Radio selection would depend on what you currently have installed the car to be re-used, or even if you wish to keep it period correct.

 

Hi Supra, all the components are original as per 1986 when I got the car. The receiver is as the image attached, I’m not sure what the other components are, other than they are original.

Thanks Why Me, appreciate the response and yes is 27mhz. Obviously I have zero idea of how things work!

Hi everyone, I have kept a Wild One for my kids that I had as a youngster. It’s a early 80’s build. I have a problem in that I don’t have a remote control and obviously the current controllers are well advanced from 30+ years ago. Can anyone provide advice on either where to obtain a vintage controller, or an option that may exist that is compatible? I think the old controller was a futaba attack from memory. Any advice would be very much appreciated.
