Novak started selling their first ESC in 1985, this being the Novak 1 as Competition ESC and the Novak 4 as Budget version. Both were using the same case and looking the same beside the sticker. Early prototypes were seen in 1984 at the 1/12th scale worlds in Denmark but some months after the Delta Autodrive II ESC.
Regarding technology Novak didn´t make any early ESC using bipolar powertransistors and started their ESC when the Mosfet transistors were introduced to the RC world.
