Not for airplanes. You can keep the throttle you want. But for a car, the back spring is needed. Maybe brocken on your tx or removed?

I don't have it yet to tell you, but see above edited post. The box states cars, boats, tanks and gliders.

On my mk5 it's like a 26 mhz. 2 back springs.

Pretty sure you wouldn't have throttle control on 2-ch flight, probably run at a fixed speed and have rudder on one channel and elevators on the other, or maybe have ailerons mixed in with the rudder?

Ok, so i can finally contribute to this most interesting and informative topic........I recently acquired a quite literally brand new Acoms Mk1 set. 
All the  components are still sealed in their bags.   A wonderful time capsule which i actually bought to fit in my newly built 58005 Countach but really deserves to stay unused now i have it here in my grubby little hands..!!!.

Nice one! I like the fluo grass green tx picture on the box. 

Nice set - I'm not sure if I've seen an NIB mk.i set before

I didn't think I'd seen a mk.i manual before, but apparently it's already in the download section  tamiyabase.com/...y/13-acoms

I have seen the brighter green prototype (?) on the mk.1 box before, in fact I found a couple of images on my HD from 2018 - not sure if I posted them at the time, but I know there's been a long running bug with not being able to edit long 1st posts in threads so maybe that was why I didn't update it ? 


nb Have also slightly tidied a couple of quattrokid's box photos so I can put them in the 1st post
