Hi Glen,

Not certain about the asiatam recoil (it's quite big) but the IBU2 will control a servo recoil (I use Turnigy TG9e). Plus it's fully programmable for speed in both directions. Hope that helps.

Glen,

There are supposedly couple versions of Asiatam recoil and one of them is designed for the Panzer III/Stug III. As far as I can tell I think the only difference is that one of them comes with a mount specifically for the Tiger I and one doesn't (And that's the one that will fit the Stug III). Steve at WDM should be able to help you out with that.

Hi Glen

Don't have many but here's what I have.







First two are in KV1 turret (Small). Basically used a HL recoil unit and cut bottom off glued servo to side. Some say you can also use a BB unit but I haven't tried.

Last picture is in my Hobby Engine Abrams. This already had a recoil (motor type) so that eased installation as the servo only needed attaching.
