Newbie's attempt at an initial Tiger

I would check your temp as well mate

I see that Taigen does its own servo recoil, dunno if that's any good?

EDIT, They do sell it separately at RC tank.de-

But 44 Euro is a steep price IMHO.

When it is hooked up to a Taigen V3 board it uses a servo signal converter which I don't see them offer anymore, and even then doesn't recoil realistically. But as soon as I hooked it up to a TK 7.1 board and tuned the servo it recoiled with proper fidelity. If you can get it over there it's decent. I'm working with the Heng Long Metal Barrel servo & elevation unit right now. It has a robust albeit clunky design. The Smoothest unit I have is the custom Rich Johnson one. He just might ship to you since he's a small 1 person company.

Hey Anton, the recoil unit on sale in Germany is the one I referred to, but it's true it seems a lot of coin for a fairly basic offering. I noticed the Rich Johnson units in a couple of your builds, looks a little like the Clark unit that Jim mentioned, but probably easier to purchase (I see he lists them on ebay). The action on yours looks great, so if the standard non-servo recoil fitted to my turret doesn't work out I'll get in touch with Rich.

Let me know how it works out with Rich. You will have a good expeience with him, He's a good guy. I actually have a few of the recoil units and a nifty fast turret rotation unit on the way.
