Interesting indeed.
If running w/ standard HL motors and HL metal gears with stock tracks.....is a cooling fan needed?

Here is what I have so far. Though I have not bench tested everything yet....I can not see why it should not work.

You could allso wire up the hull machine gun on the second board and use it for a turret MG!!!!

But looking good so far! I'm hopping this will all work when you finish and test it

If it does ! I'll be on my like flys on .....

!!

Will test later today after work. I can not wait.
Question.......was there a MG in the 'early Tiger's' Turret and if so where was it?

Does anyone happen to have an extra Tiger Transmitter unit lying around?
No crystal's needed.
Goot question ------ How many channels are there for HL Tanks? Now I will need a 3rd to operate
my other Tiger as both '02' and '03' are being used for one Panzer.

UPDATE:
Been busy but have had some time to mess around with this idea some more.
RATS! a single 12v A23 style battery at 55mAH does not deliver the same amount of
amperage / juice as AA's that average 1000 to 3000 mAH depending on quality etc.
I have been told that if I place two or thee of them in parallel I will get the same voltage but
increase the amps some......and another thought ...depending on how the transmitters were
designed ( cheap....we all know that one ) they most likely need their own power supplies as
not to interfere with each others signals.
Now looking into a small power source that has similar amps like the AA batts do.
