marhun 6 Posted September 11, 2015 Hi all You have all been great over the last few weeks with help and advice as I try to get my son hooked on RC and also try to rein myself in as the bug bites again after 20+ years. My new question is are these controllers worth anything? I particularly like the wheel one and haven't seen one like it elsewhere. They are Acoms Techniplus AP 27 and AW 27 controllers, both are **** near Immaculate and I have the servos and receivers also (oh they also work). Any advice would be welcome. Thanks Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mongoose1983 3335 Posted September 11, 2015 I can't mention a price for these but they sure look nice. I've never seen the Technisport pistol transmitter, but it seems to be a copy of the -now legendary- Python model by JR. I don't know why but somehow most people turned on to the pistol type of radios sometime around the second half of 80's. I think Acoms was more popular in the UK, while in the States RC people was more into Futabas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KEV THE REV 2319 Posted September 11, 2015 Techniplus isn't worth a lot , but it is my favourite old school TX . I don't know how much the pistol TX is worth , I guess it's how much someone is willing to pay for it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marhun 6 Posted September 11, 2015 I like them both. I recently bought a Carson stick for my son to use and in comparison it seems so flimsy, in fact the first time I opened it to put batteries in the nut at the back of the screw fell out so now the battery cover is held on by scotch tape till I am brave enough to open it up and see if I can secure it back on. I might just stick with them for nostalgia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
