Default Help to ID some bits please

Hi Guys,

Please help me ID these parts.



I think the item top left is part of one of these servos http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=110098
do you agree or if not what else could it be? If it is one of the items in the link how often are these for sale and what price?


Is the second item one of these



Squint a bit and I think it is. Again if so how much and how often do they come up and if not what could it be. As this is the receiver can you also spe what radios would have worked with this back in the good old days?

Guys, if you help me solve this I will be great full. Thank you.

looking at the clearer picture it looks like a US spec receiver
the "75" refers to frequency band (like we used to run 27 and 40 MHz in the good old days)

75 was not legal in the UK for use under brca rules I believe .If I am correct its worthless with out a transmitter to operate it

top left looks like the booster box on a ko ps87, you are probably right about the receiver, not many had the crystal in that position

The receiver in the clear picture is one that I borrowed from google images. I think it is the same as the one in the poor quality picture. The only issue would be is the one in the poor quality image was on a UK car that I know was scrutinized. No way would the car have got through with an illegal frequency.

Any chance they made these in other frequencies?

Did any other KO servos use the booster box?

Thanks or the help so far guys.

AH I see apologies yes the top poor picture doesn't let us see what frequency its running on should be 27 or 40 MHz for UK legality

I remember booster box on ko ps 87 too cant think I remember on anything else

Dodgy any chance of some clear pics of the items? If so could I use them to seek out items for my build?

Is anyone able to tell me what years the different servo models were introduced and used on cars. I appreciate someone could use a 1990 servo for the net five years but serious racers would probably have used around a ser period.

Thanks to everyone.

Jamie

will sort some out for you over the next couple of days, i still use ko ps1001's in the cars i use at club, and in one of the buggy's i race in welsh league, they may be over 20 years old now but theyre still very good servo's, pretty sure they were something like 1993 or 1994.

Great thank you for sorting this, that is exactly what I need by the looks of things. If you ever want to sell you know who would like to buy.
