Hello,

This way we can offer nitro conv kits specifically designed for Novak HV products. The 5mm shaft rotor (upgrade kit) has been approved, so we will probably do the press release for it in a few weeks.
Well, color me surprised - but happy. While I hope the current smaller, creative and innovative companies (like our own RC Monster) continue to exist and even thrive, I'm glad to see a true "main stream" company like Novak joining the fray. 2008 is the year this class will get noticed.

My only advice for you (Novak) is that I hope your 1/8th electronics are up to the performance of your race grade 1/10th electronics. Back in my old days of racing 1/10th, Novak was the best. Orange was in all my vehicles. The current HV products just don't seem up to the same quality as your 1/10th race products. Perhaps racing was not the target market for the older HV stuff, and that's fine but 1/8th is a race class. We need race grade stuff. Motors that can deliver performance and speedo's which can handle the heat. 5 minutes doesn't cut it anymore. When I run against Nitro I need something which can handle 15 or better yet 20 minutes of punishment.

Build it right and Orange will be right back on top.
