Right ho, Firstly Happy New Year to everyone on the forum lets hope next year will be a far far better one than this one has been...
Secondly, Can Anyone identify this transmitter, picked it up for the stick units, for a project further down the list , the circuit board and case look professional, apart from the edges of the case has araldite(epoxy glue stuff) applied, the back has been professionally bent as is the case as well..
stick units Ive never seen , but HB precision come to mind, probably totally wrong there, aerial has a loading coil, and the signal meter is a 'Proper' rf sniffer having a pick up wire close to aerial when its attached..
Answers greatly appreciated..
An update on the FLC reproduction is that the paint and lacquer are hardening off , so will be assembled in a few days..

Definitely HB sticks but could be any number of kit built trannies from the 70's which supplied the HB sticks?
Does the track side of the PCB have any identifying markings?

Hi Robert
The stick units are Sprengbrook/HB (Harry Brooks) from the early 70s, but the circuit board looks a bit like a Digi-Trio or an early Microtrol, I'd need to look in the back of mine to see if they are the same.
Looking forward to seeing the Flight Link reproduction, it sounds like you're nearly there.
Cheers Mike

Aww thanks chaps , stick units look great apart for some rusty mounting screws
I’ll look on back of circuit board for identifying marks
I’ll come back with my findings

Nothing on the rear of the board to identify manufacturers
The sticks feel really nice , once again I could never afford Sprengbrook gear either , think my first set of gear was acquired from a good friend in Keil Kraft , and that was a anodised blue set of OS 4 channel with 7 wire servos , always going wrong though ...

Looks a bit like a kit outfit marketed under the name ‘Teleradio’ they had centre loaded aerials and HB sticks I think ?
