Hi Trev, i got oddball from Tankzone, but email them and ask if it is in stock before you buy.

how do you move the ariel to turret?

Well what i did was drill a hole in the antenna thingy on top of the turret, then re-routed the antenna wire up through the middle of the turret with the other wires, poked it through the hole i drilled and then simply stuck the base of the antenna to the inside of the turret with a strong sticky pad and their you have it oh and dont forget to remove the silly bracket from the back and throw it in the bin

If i was to do it again i would get rid of the spring i added at the bottom of the antenna for something more acurate, and now i have seen this pic again, it reminded me i must re-paint oddballs face
