couple of problems

Post by tanker bob »

Hi, Dont know if any one can help me, I have just bought an Mato Sherman in kit form and have put RX18 board in and recoil unit and high intensity flash unit and every thing works fine apart from sometimes when I switch the tank on and start it up the High I FU keeps firing it wont stop until I switch of at the battery, I have to take the tank apart and unplug the small plug on the High I FU and plug it back together again and then its fine again.

Also any idea where I can plug the rear light in if I join the live to the front lights it seems to drain the lights I have tried other lives on the connector board and same thing happens.

Thanks
Bob
