Switching off the tank recoil
Having had time to test out the new acquisition.
May I ask those in the know how to turn off the tank recoil. Can’t find it in the instructions.

Ah yes. Giving the full information always helps. It is a newly acquired Torro/Taigen Tiger 1. I think it has the V3. Not exactly sure about these.

Re: Switching off the tank recoil
Thank you Kaczor. I wonder if they could have made it any easier to find?

At least it didn't require aftermarket parts or rewiring!

Ohh the eccentricities of Taigen.



If this is your first then you'll love how things sorta work non-intuitively. Down is eventually up for the cannon, steering and throttle response is twitchy like a field mouse trapped in a room of hungry barn cats, Ahhh but the Tiger I fidelity is much better than Heng Long, sans the mirrored antenna mold on the drivers side on the rear engine deck.

True but not far off.

One of the better things I have read in a while! Thankfully was not drinking coffee at the time.

Re: Switching off the tank recoil
I think there are eight or more different control configurations among the AFVs and accessories I run. Remembering the different configurations help reassure me that the years have not boiled my noodles.
