This section is for builds that are not strictly Tamiya or Heng Long. For instance, replacing the electronics from a WSN or Matorro, or even a scratch-build.

Well, because the tank is very tiny it´ll cramped inside, but I´ve planned to use HL electronics.

From left to right: track gear, receiver board 27Mhz, turret drive, battery 2.7Ah, RX-18 and the speaker Ø50mm mounted at the upper hull.

Now it´s time for the upper hull of Pz. I.
As mentioned before, it´s the same basic rack…

A very simple turret (because of the small size).
