Taigen recoil turret on HL
Taigen recoil turret on HL
I realise there was a recent thread on this, but it kind of stalled - please forgive me.
I have a Taigen recoil turret that I want to install on current HL spec rx18 dual sound Tiger 1. My question is, is this possible. I know it's not plug n play and I'm happy to rewire, just not sure how. Has anyone managed to get it working?
Any wiring diagrams to show solution?
I think this may have been a bad buy on my part!
If it's simply not possible, is there a recoil barrel that will work on HL?
My HL turret has the usual 8 pin connector next to 3x2 pin and 1x3 pin connector
Thanks.

Re: Taigen recoil turret on HL
I got this system working in my F05 Tiger, but in short, all the H/L electronics go in the bin.
I bought the Taigen system, plus the flash & recoil micro switch system, plus the correct Taigen hull plug (with the 8 wire cable socket_ and of course the actual 8 wire cable to match.
A Taigen power switch with earth socket ( red though!!) so the earth cable from the turret recoil/elevation can ground properly.
I will look back in my F05 build and see if its explained correctly, but you will need all the Taigen electrics.

Changing electronics is what I feared would be necessary. Maybe clutching at straws but was hoping someone had cracked it

Re: Taigen recoil turret on HL
For me,Taigen or Heng Long,it's the same but can not understand the probleme?
Re: Taigen recoil turret on HL
The problem is that the taigen turret appears not to be compatible with Heng Long electronics. I was hoping there would be a way to get it to work without having to invest in taigen electronics and a new tx.

Are you talking BB gun with recoil?

Re: Taigen recoil turret on HL
Thanks for this. It's as close as I have seen but for an older version of hl electronics. I'm going to have a go at matching it but mine is the dual sound version that this suggests it won't work with. Always considered I was alright with electronics but this is blowing my mind

Re: Taigen recoil turret on HL
Take a look at this. Eric states at the end that the duel sound takes a bit of extra wiring. Which one would think suggests it can be done
