Hi giys,

I just wondered if anyone can help. I am after getting hold of a couple of old receivers and also some crystals for an old Acoms controller plus a receiver. I have learnt that if you have a different make controller to a receiver that doesn't really matter so long as they have the same 'am' or 'fm' and mhz frequency is that correct? I have acquired a couple of old vintage cars and would like the set up as original as possible hence why I am after an old style receiver - can they still be purhcased new? For some reason a couple of conrollers I purchased had the servos in but not the receivers....

Finally am I right in thinking that every ESC can adapt to whatever controller on whatever frequency you are transmitting n so long as you pair them up? So for example so long as you don't have them on all at once, theoretically you could have as many RC cars as you like with ELC's all tuned to the once controller on its one frequency?

Many thanks and I look forward to your responses!

Everything you said is correct- [Guessing you mean ESC and not ELC at the end?]

Don't have an old one though. Our good fiend* e-pay is prolly best for that- the older stuff isn't that 'fashionable' and doesn't go for much money, unless it's proper old!

I haven't tested any of it so it's purely pot luck, they do look in reasonable condition mind.

You might have problems with some ESC's on some receivers if your transmitters do not have servo-reverse - the ESC may set up the wrong way around (and swapping the motor wires won't help).
