Here it is all lit up. I really like the way it looks and it adds some visual interest as well. One step closer to increased realism (I know I posted this photo elsewhere but it needs to be included in my build thread). Thanks for checking in.

Project update. Last night I added two detail parts from east coast armory. The coax MG 34 machine gun that replaces the ugly red Airsoft warning light and the front hull blower. I’m also making progress in my Tamiya tank commander.

I guess my Tiger is pretty much completed. I know there’s other things that could be added or modified but I’m happy with my result. Thanks for following along and helping me out. ImageImageImage

I upgraded my electronics by installing a Clark TK-40s board and I got a Flysky fs-i6s transmitter. I wanted to wait until I got everything hooked up correctly before I posted anything and tonight I succeeded with commendable help from maxmekker.
Connecting the Taigen airsoft turret with barrel recoil to the TK-40 is a big pain in the ass for electronics challenged people like me. The outstanding motor control and sound effects make all my frustrations worth it. I know there’s a ton of videos highlighting these awesome boards but when our weather breaks I’ll make and post a new video. Thanks for checking in!Image

Anything with a TV remote that has more than 3 buttons scares the she-ite out of me.
I commend you on your continued determination to succeed Sir.

And anything the Mr Mekker supplies will surely be a treat. :thumbup:
