Is that the Main Gun/Deck Lift device I see mounted in front of the turret motor?

That's the turret motor, and the white plastic is for my sensor to lift the barrel when it's facing the rear.

I thought that was what it was, my description is different. I have one but have not installed it yet; how does it work?pininy wrote:BarryC wrote:Pininy,pininy wrote:current hull

After many days trying to find a decent tank forum based in the us i had no luck. There are topics but no updates since 2015. I guess rc tanks isnt that huge over here sadly. Well, hope you boys in the uk are cool that i stick around. Just ordered an m1a2 and plan to fpv it.
Its all plastic but i ordered steel gears (not the one with bearings unfortunately). Also metal sprockets.
I'm going to hold off on the metal tracks for now since they cost a right leg.
Oh and i apologize in advance if this isn't where i should be sharing this info.
