Whew! I am glad you found the problem, Yuyu! Please do keep us informed about your Tiger 1. I approve of your having added a cooling fan.

Update, I got had put an tamya top on it and bought an tamya system with it, works well now but I discovered that the heng long sound integrated into the tk7 sounds better. That aside I painted it dark yellow with some green stripes, experimented on that a bit and called it good for now until I got more motivation to add stuff.
Now recently I bought an new tiger, full metal mato and put the tk7 with an soundmodule in it. Ill post something on that once I got more time again

"...recently I bought an new tiger, full metal mato and put the tk7 with an soundmodule in it." I will be interested in leaning how the Mato Tiger I runs. I am curious, too, as to what you mean by a "soundmodule" in the TK7. Is that a separate circuit board that plugs into the TK7, or is it integral with the TK7?

The Mato tiger is basically like the heng long tiger 1 but with an realistic suspension, which is working similar the real suspensions of the tiger 1. To the internals; I bought he hull only with motors and gearbox similar looking to the one from heng long.

To the soundmodule: With the tk 7.0 you just plug in the speakers and you got sound; the sounds from different vehicles can be set with an easy button combination on the controller. With the Taigen V3, which are in my heng long, taigen tank you also need an soundbox for the individual tank.

Ah, I am familiar with both the Taigen/Torro V3 and the HengLong. I thought somehow HL had now developed a separate sound card or “module.” It was wishful thinking.
