I recently bought the M5 from cool bank and everything works fine except for the barrel elevation and flashing along with the recoil any ideas?

I would start by looking for a loose cable connector inside the turret. You may just get lucky and even be able to reconnect it through the open commander's and gunner's hatches. I am not at home now to take a photo of the connected board, but it's at least a possibility.

Thanks, will check it out

You may also find it was shipped at full recoil, if that was the case you can gently pull the barrel out.

Ah ha found it,the three pin plug that goes into the turret was plugged into the main circuit board backwards.turned it around and bingo everything works.thanks for the help.

Cheeze Whiz: given the "one direction" rib or ribs on the JST connectors, some worker (probably having to keep up a frenetic pace) had to ham fist that one a bit.
