Have a question,
Been following various forums for quite sometime now regarding upgrade accessory parts, and electrical upgrades.
I just purchased a barrel, recoil/flash kit from dePanzer in Germany. If there is a better vendor please let me know.
de Panzer had sent me a revised picture tutorial on how to install the recoil, flash on a HL tank. Not Tiger specific, but same same layout, etc.
I wanted to post it up as I believe it might help. It's in PDF, but I can't get it to load.
Also has anyone installed the recoil/flash barrel kit in a HL Tiger 1. It is the white plastic unit, just recoil/flash, no BB option..I would like to see one installed ..
thanks
JEFF

Hi Jeff,
I think I've got the one you're talking about fitted in my WSN Tiger & my HL Jagdpanther. Recoil's fine, elevation isn't brilliant range, but adequate.
This is the unit (albeit in black) fitted in the tiger...

I've got the wiring diagram as well?

I don't think you can load pdf files direct into posts. There is a download section wthin the Forum, which is used for uploading manuals, amongst other thing. Unfortunately, you need 20 posts before you can upload files. Hopefully, it will not be long before you have the required number, then the file could be readily available for all.

I'm slightly puzzled by the reference to dePanzer. Do you mean, by any chance, rctank.de? I've not heard of dePanzer.
Maybe, you could post a link...

Might be https://heng-long-panzer.de/en/

As for fitting the recoil unit it depends on what heng long board you have as the wiring changed on the 5.3 dual sound version and again on the 6.0 version

Hey guys, thanks for all your responses. It RCtank.de in Germany. They had sent me a revised Asiatam 'Refit' B rewire diagram..
So,
Painting, weathering, camo, airbrushing w/ my trusty Badger, static models, done loads of Star ships, with blinking nav lights, spots etc, RC planes ...but this Asiatam unit is beating me up.
First off, I re-wired the unit as per RC tank RCtanks Mr Slembrouck ? ..then the yellow lead of the recoil side micro switch sheathing started to smoke and melt.
Then today I discovered why, the large gear on top, was installed upside down. The pin the strikes the microswitch tail was facing up. the raised molded in portion of the gear..looks like a 'C" was facing down..everything jammed up. Fixed that...
Now though when I plug everything in, both motors just run ....the elevation gears spin, the recoil functions, the flash goes off and tracks recoil perfectly. Except my transmitter doesn't do anything. I plug it in, meaning when I plug the recoil leads into #2 position, and elevation motor leads into #4 position of the hull daughterboard . turn it on at the on/off switch on the hull bottom, it just runs and won't stop.
I'm close now that I found the upside down gear install...but far away !
Any ideas. I can load a few pics if anyone has a suggestion or 2.

When I get home I'll get the lid off and check the wiring Jeff. I'll take a load of pics for you, as I've got the same in the Jagdpanther....

That would be super If I could see a few pics from your Jagd !! RCtank, Germany sent me a revised 'Refit B' wiring diagram, but each side both elevation and recoil run continuously. The transmitter has zero control over he board.
It is darn frustrating because the recoil, flash, track recoil are all in sync...and it's super cool. See if I can load up a few pics of what I have going w/ the wiring
