Ahh-haa, see how quickly the need for more tanks overcomes even the most rational of men
Welcome in mate, I'm keen to see your demonstrator Tiger, pictures please when you can.................saves a lot of reading
I also encourage you to take the time to scout through the years of back catalogue builds in here, there really are some sensational projects gone before & all of them serve to educate & inspire.
Cheers

Another tiger in the ranks hello and welcome

Thank you all for the welcome. I want to convert my Hl Tiger I airsoft to ir battle. I do not need recoil flash etc. I just want to use a emitter led and the apple ir receiver and some wiring. I have seen the sgc crawler you tube video and they use the above parts and 5 pin and 3 pin lead. I would be grateful for any info and diagrams that you may have.
