Guys I need some advice on swapping the running gear from a Heng long panther that I got fairly cheap,it was supposed to be as new but it has a couple of issues,I also picked up a couple of used WSN tanks cheap,I was unimpressed with the look of the Panther but it feels and runs better than a WSN,
Anybone ever swapped out the internals on a WSN for Heng long and Is it a mare of a job to do?
The WSN tanks are a T34 and a tiger both infared.thanks in advance.

I've done it a few times and not difficult. Best get a heng long wiring harness as it has all the bits to plug into the heng long. Then logically change the wires over start with easy stuff like power, volume, speaker, track motors.

The turret wiring is a little more complex, so again easy first like headlight, traverse motor, then your left with 1 wire for machine gun and 3 for recoil & elevation. Check wiring diagrams and a little trial and error and you get there.
