Turret wiring help

Post by Docomar750 »

Hi All

I have a Heng Long Shermann 105mm with a IBU Pro2 fitted. I am changing out the airsoft system and fitting Heng Long recoil unit and elevation servo I have tried looking for wiring diagrams but no luck I think I can understand how the elevation servo and recoil unit motor go but I am at a loss as to how the relay switch wires in and do I need any resistors on the circuit as the airsoft unit had on the gun don't need to wire the led in as this is being swapped out for ir led for a battle system. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as all I can find refers to the rx18.

Cheers

Darren

Just wire it as per the rx18 diagrams as the ibu2 is designed to control it that way.

Ibu2 wiring diagrams are in the manual on the supplied microsd card or available for download from my website.

Hi

Thanks for that but confused how the micro switch is joined in to all this it seems to me it is tied in to the IR system?

Hello

Had a light bulb go off is the micro switch on the Heng Long recoil unit wired in just to trigger the barrel flash unit rather than controlling the recoil motor as this seems to make more sense and if so calms my troubles as i realise i dont need this to work a barrel flash off a IBU2 PRO
