IMPORTANT! THE POLARITY OF P3 IS NOT CORRECT ON THIS DIAGRAM. Refer to the diagram that Jofaur86 posted for the correct polarity.Wish I could find an operating manual for it also.

What is your concern? all connections are well explained you need an 8-channel Radio, minimum, and on what type of tank do you plan to install? because depending on the tank, some connection will not be used?

True. I guess since you can use your own radio you can map the functions however you want.

Also, what the heck is a photoelectric lifting unit?

Hi, the photoelectric lifting unit is a separately available board with a photoelectric sensor that lifts the barrel as the turret is traversed in proximity to engine deck. This is a real world function present on modern MBTs such as Leopard 2.

I have a translation of the what seems to be the only available "manual" for the CS control unit and it is attached. It is not perfect but it good enough to make sense of the set-up particularly if you have the unit, receiver and transmitter in front of you. One you have unit running and connected to a speaker, you can access English voice prompts for set-up of user defined functions such as sound set, volume, language and IR battle damage and hull recoil effect. .

I have two of these units as well as the stabilization system. I have found that the unit is surprisingly good. All the functions need are present and once I had found and translated all the available online documentation, set-up turned out to be quite straight forward. In addition the unit is supplied with a set of LEDs and all the wiring needed to install everything.

The first unit I bought had a fault with one of the lighting functions. I was able to track down the manufacturer and they happily replaced the entire unit at no cost and returned it to me via DHL, also at no cost.

Although it took a good deal online effort searching online for the documentation and the actual manufacturer (and mainly in Chinese - thanks to Google Translate), I am very happy with the unit. It is inexpensive, has a separately available and very accurate gun barrel stabilisation unit that is small enough to fit compact turret (such as T90/72) and all the functionally needed for a modern tank. Unfortunately, the project I brought the unit for, a T90MS, was put on hold last year when work encroached on my hobby time, so I have not actually completed the build!

Awesome! Thank you this is very helpful.

Anybody know what the plug that is left of P1 is for?

Hello,
if I understand correctly, it's a "Bus" system, so only the Signal wire is used, looking at the diagram, I would say that the 8 is part of the power plug, plus / minus, I don't see what the pad can be used for corresponding to the Signal wire on the other sockets? in principle nothing.

found this?

I don’t think it’s for sbus although I haven’t tried. I speculate it may be for the battery charging system or programming input.
