Not sure if this is the right place to post this as it is a Torro but this is what I have done so far to my Sturmtiger:
New gearboxes, New speaker, IBU2U board, 2s Lipo and some electrical work.

Your Sturmtiger is great. I like your centrally mounted IBU2 - a really good and neat idea. Sadly I do not have access or the skills to operate a 3D printer so I cannot make a similar mounting. Please let me know if you ever decide to sell mountings like that.

Cheers
Jon

In addition to doing the KV2 I could not resist re-visiting my Sturmtiger. I have copied Baldrick 131's idea and made a central mount for the IBU2U. Made mine by cutting a plasticard bulkhead and epoxying an IBU2U mounting from RC Tank Electronics to it.

:thumbup: Innovation and improvisation keep this forum alive and engaging. You have some good examples of spatial awareness there, and of how to make the most of the tank's internal real estate. :D

The Electrical work is now done and, I hope, a little neater than it was before.......
