Connecting a Taigen IR turret with recoil to IBU2

[Craigm1992]

Hello

I have fitted the Taigen IR turret with recoil to my Heng Long tiger 1. After I turned it on first and my 2amp fuse blew I got more 2amp fuses.

I rewired the board and turret etc and the tank with run fine apart from the gun which will not recoil, the gun flash does work. I have noticed I have a spare lead with a red and white from the turret but I can't figure out where to connect it on the IBU2 base version I have.

I have tried to upload some pictures but it's my first time trying to upload pics to a thread so I hope they are visible.

Any help is appreciated as I am not sure if I have made a mistake or it is something else.

There is a switch under the hatch which turns off the recoil is it that?

Also there is a thick wire probably red this needs connecting to the battery negative.

The red white wire you mention isn't used, flash needs rewiring to 3 pin plug like in manual.

Oh dear this is a tad embarrassing but yes it was the switch on the hatch

Still got a bit to learn it seems

Thanks for the reply Tankbear
