Hey there Hoob....try browsing through Herr Fritz's Post...he did a very clever set up for the turret and upper hull using a standard plug you might be able to get from Radio Shack

I liked the idea because the plug also served as the lock for the upper and lower hull :D

JST-XH, sometimes also called 2.5 which is the pitch between the pins.

Cheers tankbear that's what I was looking for! And cheers alpha, but there is no room left in the tiger and would take some giggling to fit that in, but still a cool mod, maybe next time!

I was going to post a link to an EBAY seller I've dealt with...carries all kinds of plugs...just wasn't sure he carried that one..he just has too many things listed...using the search on his pages is pretty useless
Did think HerrFritz's application was cool as it served two purposes ;)
