Wires ... Do I have the right bits and where do they go?

Post by Markocaster »

Hi first if this is the wrong section for this sorry , I thought more would see it here.
So this is what I have to work with. Came with the tank as is.
I know nothing :(
I figured where the batt goes and the turret charging port , machine gun and head lights
The rest is a mystery :)
Can someone who knows this stuff take a look at the photos and tell me if it's worth proceeding or should I just order a Clark board and a wire set and start from scratch? Also I have no controller for the tank will any heng long one work?

Those are the overview pics of everything but the smoke unit and motors.
It's a DBC-RCv2 battle system and Heng Long multi function unit w fan.
Here are a few close up photos.

What are my options for a transmitter and receiver, should I buy a Fatuba at around $100
Or would a secondhand HL trans/receiver work? Maybe I can find something on eBay?
Or this
TAG120616 - 1/16 Taigen Complete 2.4GHz radio Set for the Tiger I model kit (TAG12501). Includes 2.4GHz radio, Main Unit with built in 2.4GHz reciever and cooling fan, Speaker unit, Wiring Harness and on/off Switch Set for the Taigen Tiger I Model Kit (TAG12501).
For $120.00
Thanks
