I have the Heng Long 7.1 for the leopard. I don't think it's a controller setting. Has anyone done a mod where it shoots bbs and tilts?

I would think, if you really want it to do this functionality, after all it is your tank, then I would think you would need to remove the elevation unit, and replace it with a servo, connected to the existing BB unit. I have the 7.1 MFU, which I am just installing into a T72 which does require this function. This is the only advice I can help with. Like a lot on here, someone will work out a solution, or will have worked out a solution, and pass on how to do it. Like wise if you find a solution, please pass it over.

Having just read the instructions for my 7.1. Bearing in mind mine is new to me as well and as it is not in a tank, I haven’t be able to try it. Have you tried pressing button K and moving control stick 2 up?

Line 24 in the instructions................... :/
Mr FSA, have you read the instructions and understood what the settings are on the 7.1 not the 7.0 the 7.1 ?

Have you tried to follow them and interpret the result & try again ?

Having just set up my TK7.1 I can now confirm that the barrel tilt works off servo only, and not with the standard unit. So Mr SFA you will need to make the elevation work off a servo I can confirm that pressing button K and moving control stick 2 up switches the facility on and off.
