Panther G convoy light

Post by Stormbringer »

Hi all
Progressing on fitting convoy lights to my German tanks it is now the Panthers turn
I had previously ordered a shop bought light which arrived yesterday its a nice light but pricey

After removing the molded original light i drilled a wee hole through the backpanel and glued new light in place
I extended the wires and spliced the convoy light into the wiring for the front light and incorporated the resistor it came with into the cct
The Panther is a Taigen model so MFU is different this time and no clear indication where to plug it in so spliced it was
Finished light

:) Hello, attached is a wiring diagram (for information) for older boards, HL, Taigen, Torro, etc., operating at 2.4GHz or similar frequencies like the RX18. Everything is controlled by the 8-pin connector; the wire colors are (normally) the same as the cable between the board and the upper chassis. :thumbup:
