As to battling, maybe I can squeeze in a Tamiya One Shot kill so everything in front of it will died................

You are doing a great job, I like it a lot.

Whats that tamiys one shot kill unit? I think I have never heard that.

Sorry it is actually two shot supposedly. I have never used it but it was listed on the Mako 2 board manual:

MAKO BATTLE MODES
To ascertain the state and operating mode of your MAKO you must be able to view either the on-board LED
or a properly connected external LED. On power up your MAKO will flash the Indicator LED a number of
times corresponding to the version of firmware running on the micro controller. Full details of the firmware
version are also transmitted by REMORA and can be viewed on the command station. After showing the
firmware status the LED will stay lit for a period of 5 seconds. During this period the MAKO can be
programmed using a standard SONY TV remote. By pressing the buttons on your remote the following
battle modes are activated.
1: Light Battle Tank – 3 lives, 3 second reload period, 40 shell magazine capacity, 10 sec repair time
2: Medium Battle Tank – 5 lives, 5 second reload period, 60 shell magazine capacity, 14 sec repair time
3: Heavy Battle Tank – 9 lives, 9 second reload period, 80 shell magazine capacity, 18 sec repair time
4: Light Bergepanzer – 3 lives, 6 second reload period, 80 repair capacity, 10 sec repair time
5: Medium Bergepanzer – 3 lives, 10 second reload period, 80 repair capacity, 14 sec repair time
6: Heavy Bergepanzer – 3 lives, 10 second reload period, 80 repair capacity, 18 sec repair time
7: Autoberg: Automatic Bergepanzer mode.
8: MAUS Mode: Heavy tank setting firing the Tamiya 2 shot kill code.
9: Heng Long/Taigen MFU selection and optimisation
0: Display Diagnostics – Displays current MAKO setting on the Diagnostic LCD (sold separately)
P+: Turn on Coup de gras function (default)

Oh yep, I know that. Im using ASP boards in the tanks and are using the same system... Now is clear, lol. I think you need to connect the mako to a heng long /taigen board, it would be great to have stand alone battle units...

Still waiting for the spare tire rack in between the cab and the launcher. Also use a fairly small servo so the launch angle is not that great but good enough for now.

Magnificent
Now, make another 20 and let us know the price !!

That looks very cool Michael it's amazing what you can build from these little truck's

Cheers, Lee.

Hate to say it but there is a guy on facebook that has done one on a WPL truck, lol.
