Unboxing the new HL T-90... But without a manual!

I was proudly unboxing my new HL T-90... But it came without a manual!
After forty or so RC tanks I think I know how to get the battery in, but there are so many loose parts!
Can I find the manual online, digital? Google was of no help so far. Or can somebody take some pictures of the manual?

Bummer! Can't the vendor supply one? It's a pity that Taigentanks.com haven't got the T-90 in stock yet, as they conveniently keep user manuals for all their models online, for download. Doubtless, someone will scan and post the Accessories Section of the manual here before long. Meantime, I expect there are plenty of pics of the model online for guidance.
Have to say, that's a pretty impressive array of extras there

. In this respect, HL have improved their inventory immensely. It's also one of their best looking- if not their best- models

sooo.. I wasn't the only one? Mine (came from rctank.de) had no manual too. The plastic/vinyl tow cable was also missing. I built it by a lot of googling of pictures and some logic some sellers have really good high-rez pictures.. That being said, it's not exactly the first model I built. So, it could be a bit easier for me.
I haven't found a PDF of it anywhere.
Remember this: Most parts fit only in certain slots. The difference between the pins and slots on parts are such, that they only fit a certain way. That, combined with some diligent googling made it none too hard. But omitting a manual is not exactly user-friendly.
On the tank and its parts: yes. The quality and details have improved só much the last years. The Chally 2 was already a revelation, and the fit and finish of the T-90 truly impressed me.

Just heard back from the seller: ALL T-90's from HL have no manuals, factory f-up!

My HL T90 had a manual. If I can find it, I will try to do some photos.

WAIT JUST ONE MOMENT! If you are a man you do not need ANY instructions!
Instruction booklet reading is 1 of the offenses that requires the immediate return of your man card.

'Kay, call me a girl then, I've been called worse.. :p But having the manual around còuld have saved me some aggravation and cursing.
The (infrared ? ) lightbuckets next to the barrel caused me the biggest headache. Oh, and the routing of the tubing on the rear barrels and the fiddly bits needed for that on the rear. Though, logic dictated the routes somewhat. And I hàve to admit that the drivemotor atrappe for the machinegun confused me a tad. I thought it was a fuelpump or something...
