This is a little late to mention,it is a modification by Bubbajoe involving the use of a Panzer four ring gear, and a Tamiya angle gearbox for turret rotation with 360 degree rotation, and turret removal in any position.

The down side,the plasticard ring on the lower turret section has to be a tight fit,otherwise the turret can bounce out of the ring gear.

looks very clever. :clap:
I think a lot of my turret issues were caused by untidy wires inside getting in the way. Particularly the battery splitter/ connector.
Anyway.....
I might get round to doing some more painting yet.

That KT is coming along nicely. Not often you see one on transport tracks.
