Very Nice Edwin....I've always appreciated the nimbleness of the Panzer IIIs ...I still can't believe how well all your electronics fit under the hull...and I really like the sounds you have programed into her... great build

Good Morning, Edwin,
Wonderful work with everything. The sounds are particularly impressive! Kudos!

Currently I only had the time to construct a pivot for the carriage of Stugs.
However, the G-code for printing is also ready and maybe I can still make overnight.



There is now separated to Page Align the Stug the rocker and the pivot bearing can now be both, or just the rocker rebuild.

That printer sure beats what I'm doing for the L70...doing all the gun supports in aluminum

Excellent work. I am more than a little interested in how you will mount the barrel. I need something like this for my own StuG.

The hinge was this morning then printed.



But to install it I had to prepare a few things. In the upper part disturbed nor the old fortifications and the box and the gunner's hatch had to get away.







In order to mount the mount to the pivot, I have this but not glue it and attach the holes for the screws.
First, pre-drill the joint with a 2mm drill.



Then put the gun mount it and this pierce to the hinge as a template it with the 2mm drill.



Last drill out the mount from the top with a 3mm drill.



So you can then glue the joint base to the hull top, put through the gun carriage from the front and befesigen with a screw. So you get a stable, smooth-joint to Page Aim ??the cannon.





Next, the canon rocker stuck in the inner part of the mount, with 2mm pre-drilling and screw.







For installation of the rocker, I now had to cut a little bit. So the rocker but can be re-installed as described in the expansion.





I have already placed the servos to end for today.

Excellent tutorial on how to do this.

Edwin, you are doing a remarkably excellent job, both at remodeling your StuG and making me feel inadequate. o7

Edwin...you are making this look too easy maybe you have to take some selfies to show that there is some sweating involved

And again it is coming to a piece, none of completion.

Today I installed the three servos and also still the same program the Align to Page on the transmitter. So you can align with a knob at the side the gun now.




The Evolation and the RCC, I must still be programmed directly at Beier sound module, but before that I have the veritable camouflage headlight and the excess flash.
So I'm going to the Stug then can pass its owner in Derbach 23.

By the way I now also have the parts to Page Align optimized and started a few to print them for printing the canon and the rocker bearings somewhat.
