Heng Long TK 7.1 - A LOT OF NEW FEATURES

[RCPlaneFanatic]

What is the option listed as "cannon stabilization switch", function #10 in the feature list? It says prepared for subsequent upgrading, has that upgrade been released?

G'day folks, just got a 7.1 down here. Has Tiger and T90 sound set.
My question is...................on firing the main gun the thing seems to find an auto-loader default breach return function regardless of the sound set chosen.
Great if you have a modern MBT with an autoloader like a T90, but not cool if you want it in a Tiger 1.
Is there a way of disabling this function and if so, how??

If I remember correctly, it's the Button K + Control stick 2 pushed upward to activate/deactivate that function

Anyone know why they switched to a Deans connector on the 7.1? I am trying to find the best way to connect an xt60 connector. Should I change the connector, or is there an adaptor to use?

I assume the reason they changed to a Deans is because it's a much better connector than those old Tamiya style ones. Personally, I changed all my batteries to use Deans connectors. I also have an adaptor, but that was a DIY.

Just buy (or solder youself) one of those:

I prefer the one piece molded XT60 to Deans if I need a converter. I bought a kit off Ebay a while back that had Tamiya to XT60, Deans to XT60, and a few others all in one using the overmolded type like these:

...The other four are CN13 (Light Sensor System Switch,...no idea what that does) CN14 (Extension Function Interface, REALLY have no idea what that does) CN15 (IR emitter) and CN16 (IR rcvr).
LIke I said, I have not seen CN17 on the 7.1. So I think that CN13 serves that function.
So. I have written plenty for one morning. You guys have a great day and if you have input or want to ask something...feel free to do so.

Hello
I am the original author of this thread. Since my son grew up and stopped being interested in toys, I returned to my main hobby - making music and servicing electric guitars and amplifiers - so I haven't been here for a long time... But yesterday, out of sentiment, I checked my old thread out of curiosity. I can explain to you what CN13 does - using the example of my video here:

CN13 - Light Sensor System allows you to raise the barrel like in modern tanks - when it is above the rear deck with the engine. I made such a module for my son's tank and if you live in the EU - I can make a second one and send it to you (for the price of the parts, my time to make it and shipping costs).

Hello,
I don't know if it is the best place for my question or if I have to open a new thread ...

Some years ago, I had found on the RC Tank Australia forum, someone who had investigated the communication protocol Henglong.
He had extracted the main commands from the frames he had recorded. At that time they were RX13 modules ... RX18 ...
I have just acquired a recent HL model equipped with a TK-7.0 card. and I was pleasantly surprised by the evolution and the number of functions directly accessible from this remote control, which looks like a toy.
Has anyone looked closely in the communication protocol between TK-7.0/7.1 and the remote control ?

Not that I know of.
