It's not related to the servo signal side of things, either GTB version will work with both normal and high response radios.

If your servo worked better with your Novak than Tekin, there must have been a problem with the Tekin's BEC output, it shouldn't have affected the response of the servo otherwise.

The Novak HV-Max, which is probably what toooldskool's friend was using in his Losi 1/8th, is a different ESC which also has problems with AM radios because of RF interference.
But, that does not explain the problems with normal GTB (first gen.) with 40Mhz radio's.

That is/was the main point of this discussion
