Hi Peeps.
Help Badly needed, I have a heng long kv1, and a kv2 torro turret. and no instructions on the electrical connections
and any kit bashing needed to get the tank base to talk to the turret.
I am using taigen 2.4 tx/rx.
any diagrams or builds on bng etc would ease my torment.
I would love to see this up and running, before I pass away !!!
Cheers Wads.
P.S. I am not very electrically minded, but can follow diagrams/instructions.

You're in Luck Wads.... Painless just finished his conversion just a little while ago

Hi Alpha.
Still my guardian angel I see, thanks for that, I have solved most of it but still have a three wired link from the
turret, to goodness knows where, I have no wish to burn it out at this stage, I have turret l @ r, and front light works ok but no gun action at all,
the trouble is that I am attempting to match, a heng long kv1 base using a taigen tx/ rx set to a torro kv2 turret/gun.
but I am slowly getting there.
Cheers
Wads.

Oh yeah Wads...Definitely contact Painless... though his was a tad different ...His base was a Taigen...but you don't want to just mess with the electricals blindly... you might also try contacting Michael C for some advice on Hook ups if Painless is unsure

I'm no guardian angel Wads ...I'm just a board member who tries his best to help out

By the way Wads... Pictures help

Good Morning,
The Taigen RX is different than the HL RX in this respect as the Taigen plug-ins are in different locations on the board than the HL. There are diagrams of the various boards and what goes where but since you are using the Taigen RX , look at this: viewtopic.php?f=81&t=12580 It has the instruction sheet and diagram for the TAIGEN as to what goes where. ;o) (There is also my thread that Alpha mentioned but I understand that photos don't always tell the whole story.)
regards,
Painless

Hi Painless.
Thanks or the info, t
The only problem I have at the moment is that from the torro turret I have a spare three pin plug hanging around and nowhere to put it, although there will be many who could tell me
I have all track motion, blinking headlight, and turret side ways motion l @ R.
but no elevation of gun, no firing,
Although this is enough for now, I feel that it could be better.
Cheers Wads.
