Led machine gun, Tamiya?
Good evening, what type of led, to replace Tamiya, machine gun, sold at a gold price, Thank you in advance for the help
Re: Led machine gun, Tamiya?
Any 3mm LED will do - the question is, what are you intending to plug it into? The Tamiya MF unit has the current limiting resistor built into it, other systems might require you to add a suitable resistor in line with it to prevent burn out.

Re: Led machine gun, Tamiya?
Do you not have this part with either your Tamiya or Heng Long chassis?
Or, are you after the metal thickness from a real Sherman?
