As for the mini fan , the electronic required to power them is more complicated than it seems ...The following picture is an example ....
To make your smoke unit fully proportional ; you would need the board mounted on the proportional smokers ...If you want one , just send me a P.M. with your mailing address and I'll give you one ...( I have quite a few spare ones )
hi,
how many volts is the fan used?

I am very interested in the possibility of connecting this smoke unit HL to a Tiger Tamiya. :~
is it possible?
I don't understand how to connect the smoke generator to the engine.

There is no room left in a tamyia for a smoker.what with the dmd ,esc and the speaker plus 2 batterys. The only option you have is to remove the speaker/or custom build another smaller speaker holder. Witch will produce a lower quatily sound compared to the original unit. Witch in my book is not a very good trade off. For a few puffs of smoke i would sooner have better sound.

mmm..ok, but you can drill the speaker and then put two tubes. the speaker should remain intact... right
My question is how to connect this super-smoke unit HL to tamiya electronics...
