"vintage" Futaba equipment
Fellow modelers,
I recently acquired a couple of older (probably 1980s) Futaba radios and servos and I have some questions about them.
1. The receivers and some of the servos have the old (I think "G") style plugs. Does anybody make an adapter so I can use "J" plugs (especially on the battery connection)?
2. I'm sure this equipment will have to be "gold sticker" upgraded. Is there anybody around who does that? I'm saying that because of the red frequency stickers on the Tx and Rx.
3. some of the servos have square posts instead of splines. Can I still get servo arms of this fashion? (The new spline arms fit on the square posts, but I have my doubts about the safety of that kind of setup.
I'd appreciate any comments, suggestions, etc.
