I bet some of you out there have a nice collection of old school electronics!
Anything nice and interesting to show and share?

Here's 2 of mine. They were sealed in their boxes but I just had to open the for a photo taking session

Sanwa Super Vortex 112
This was the choice esc for Team Kyosho Japan to power their Lazer campaign in the early 90s.



KO Propo CX9
Choice esc of Masami Hirosaka in the early 90s to power his championship winning Dog Fighters.

I was shocked to find out a guy at the local track used to have
A Yokomo Super Dog Fighter in the 90's.
Those were the good old days when Associated partnered with Yokomo.
I have some vintage Rc-10 stock motors to prove they were together.
Nowadays it's all about competition.

I've got one of the first design Nosram ESC's that most people in the UK were using in the early 80's. I'll get some better photos up soon but you can just see it in my Optima from the same period.

How about a Demon 2 ESC, vintage 1980. Handles all of 25A through the single power transistor.

Now that's some real vintage stuff!
Toying with the idea of getting a Super Dogfighter to match the CX9...
