HL Recoil Mod

Post by mic heinrich »

I have just finished my STuG III and want to fix the recoil. I have read that there is a mod to reverse the HL action so that the barrel springs back and the motor returns it to the run out position. I can't find any detail on it? Can someone please point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Mic..

Their is a kit for the Tamiya recoils but you should ask Dietrich he has done this mod in several ways and I'm sure he can tell you what to do. On the Tamiya units the process involves removing half the teeth on the rotation gear,and a spring to pull the shuttle tray back.Then when the drive rotates the gear to re-engage the teeth the barrel runs back out at normal speed.
