Looking good Bubba. But I think mcevoyi is building a "Dicker Max". It's a sort of Stug IV but has a taller superstructure. So he should be ok with the recoil mechanism.
All the best,
Nick.

you can use a tamiya recoil cable conected to the gun and elevation is not a problem using the stug style elevation motor as that is what i used in my hummel
