New to the hobby and I have 2 tanks and Tiger 1 and Abrams being modified into a TUSK looking for tips on the electronics.

Welcome Sir!

You'll find several Tiger I and Abrams builds to stir your modeling juices.
I have an M1A1 Abrams with TUSK 1 that started out as a Heng Long M1A2 found here, you might find helpful.

Welcome aboard. Have a daughter just north of OKC. I hear you've got a nice armor display nearby, next trip to Oklahoma, I intend to give it a look. I'm relatively weak at electrics for these and tend to use the stock ones. I have an old PzIII that needs a new running system and am considering ordering a new one to rob its system for the old tank. It looks like a complete tank is just a couple bucks more than piecing a system together (and I'd have a parts tank left over).

G'day & welcome along Mr Adonis..................Daughters shall be off limits I'd say mate !
I have driven down past Ft Sill on the way out of Enid, we drove to Dallas Ft Worth instead of flying out of good ole Roy Rodgers in OKC. Got lost, got found, made the flight and saw a lot on the way!
Have fun while you are here & pictures of your projects when you can ;)

Welcome from Southern Illinois! I have a particular fascination with the Tiger 1. Here’s my build thread on my Initial Production Tiger if you’re interested. The electronics I’m using is an Elmod Fusion Pro which is out of production but their newer version might be satisfactory.
