seeing as this is turning into the lunchbox appreciation society i've dug out my old lunchbox. It was put away over 5 years ago with a problem with the gearbox nd no drive.
so i removed the gearbox - and it turns out it was just a loose motor mount. i had to take most of the chassis to bits to tighten two screws! oh, and a rear axel spring is broken. ffs
still, at least i had help

my charger running from an old computer power supply - dont tell the health and safety police (or the wife)
new battery, springs and a bearing set ordered. am getting excited.
thinking about getting a superclodbuster. my cousin had one decades ago. it was a fantastic hoot.

Please open the psu and put a couple of posts or banana females on the casing. That is a nightmare waiting to happen.

It's a work in progress. The psu is meant to be going into a custom built hdd enclosure to house 9 hdd for backup. I've just tested that it works with the charger. Loving my retro Tamiyas. Clodbuster and Brat both back up and running
Ill get a cheap as chips one to mutilate for charging. Or I'll get a quiet one for the enclosure and mutilate this one for charging
