Tamiya M51 Search Light.

Post by Pebs434 »

Having just built the IDF M51 I would like to incorporate the barrel mounted searchlight to disguise the Infrared transmitter in.
Can anybody advise me please whether it's available to buy or is it scratch built?
Thank you.

I bough mine from Woz, it's 3D printed and will need some finishing but works very well.
