How to...

Post by HammerWihoutASickle »

So, thanks to Stian and his chocolate bars, I have a TK60 and a flyski radio and receiver.
The thing is, I cannot for the life of me figure out what wires go where, even with the diagram for the distinct lack of 3 pin connectors and wires that go into channels 1 through 8. The tank I'm trying to upgrade is the Heng Long Leopard 2A6. Most of the connections are the larger, two pin connections, but the instructions are talking about 3 pin connections which I don't seem to have. I've looked all over for a tutorial and come up with nothing.
There's a set of wires that came with it, with a 10A fuse, but the thing is so alien to me that I don't know where to start.

Anyone know of a step by step tutorial to installing this correctly?
I do have other questions but, that can wait for now, I'm just looking to finish the hull first before I move to the turret. I'll put some pictures up later.

I'm supposed to be asleep but this is quite literally keeping me up. This hasn't happened in a while.

Oh, and Stian; if you're reading this - I want more chocolate.

So, lets see now, if we can get the basics done, before we go on with the heavier stuff :thumbup:

Later , we will rewire the airsoft setup, and after that, take a look at adding the servo recoil kit to the tank

I have no 3 pin wires. Where did those come from (Ch 1-8)? :wtf:

Moving along to the turret .

When opening it , to me , it seems to have the 'latest' connection setup ( for airsoft) , and unlike the challenger , the wires to the elevation motor/recoil motor are now seperated.

So in reality , one only need to connect the 8pin wire to the TK board( and just dobble check with diagram once more ) and set TK board in 'airsoft' modus with the sony remote , plug recoil sitch wire into CN3 ( according to schematic) and ready .

My layout with the sbus unit.

I need to know where these red wires go from the receiver go.
I also see a volume control wire on CN4, something I don't seem to have.ImageImage

Okay, so the existing wire according to the diagram needs a 10A fuse (in picture). How do you go about attaching it?Image

Got to work on the turret. Connected the airsoft gun to the board. Seems okay.
Though, I need to remove the airsoft unit to replace it with the one you gave to me. The wires need to go for that.

Do you have any advice?
