hi everyone my ? is has anyone found a way to disable the track recoil without fitting anti track recoil system , allowing gun to recoil without nasty jerking of the tank as fitted to the heng long tanks , i have fitted asiatam recoil system in two of mine so far the tiger 1 & panzer 1v , would like to fit same system in my kv1 iff possible ? anyone know iff this can be done , any info most welcome , thanks tanker242.

hi everyone posted ? earlyer about this & just found solution on u tube a system called the dragon . an easy to fit solution with no soldering but my ? now is dose anyone know where to buy this dragon fitment in the uk & how mutch it is . thanks tanker242

You can try doubling up on RX-18s. Tap both of them into the battery as well as the same receiver board, one RX-18 control movement and the other one for the rest of the functions.

I just got 2 of them from WDM in UK. The Dragon itself will only work with BB, if you have IR you will need the whole MAKO/Dragon combination. I think it was 17BP.

thanks micheal i will try wdm .& no havent got i.r fitted just asiatam recoil . tanker242

thanks for repy micheal got ur outher reply about wdm on my outher post about dragon fitment solution . tanker242

hi again micheal have looked on welsh dragon , but not the same thing seen on u tube ,the one on u tube just plugs into ir port then u connect motor wires into dragon without any soldering look on u tube for fitting dragon to rx18 board , it is this one i am looking for ,tanker242

Isn't this the one ?

20 BP though. This one plugs into IR port and you just connect motor wires to the Dragon. No soldering. There is only one called Dragon and this is it. There are others out there called ATRC but will require soldering. It is a different version of the same thing.

hi micheal yes thats the unit i am looking for but could not find it on wd site before thanks for the info , this unit should be very popular to get rid of annoying track recoil on heng long tanks , tanker242

I bought two and not realizing that it needs exclusive use of the IR port, but RC-Aussie is kind enough to work a deal out with me to get the MAKO/ATRC set which will work with IR at the same time. If you are thinking of using IR at the same time don't bother with this one and just get the new MAKO 2 which has it build in and works with your RX-18/Taigen as well. I am waiting for my package from RC Aussie to try this out.

I recently tried the 2 RX-18s just to see and it actually works quite nicely but you will need to do some soldering/splitting etc. It does work with both BB and IR and it is the cheapest, especially if you have some extra RX-18s lying around like I do.
