Hi,
Need a little help, finaly got to modding my H/L JP, just metals for now, but have noticed the volume is low, even on full whack!

Any ideas, thnx

Hi Common with all models of Heng Long the speaker isnt very good the sound does improve a little if you put a better speaker in .


regards pete

Hello Pete,

Well I thought that, and my other tanks are at least 50% louder, could it be the volume switch wiering?

Try a 1 ohm speaker, they are often in old CD Radio's and things, and fit a 22kb potentiometer from Maplins (less than a £1) to replace the tacky Heng Long volume control. You will get better sound that way.

I've had mine for three weeks and have the same problem,next to my Tiger at half volume I can't hear the Jagdpanther. I'm betting on the volume control.Sax

Maybe the exhaust has a hole in on your Tiger ? Simple answers are always the best . . . . . .

Please clarify your answer,it is not clear what you mean?

Sorry I was being sarcastic (I know, its the lowest form of wit . . ) Meant like in real life, when an exhaust gets a hole in it makes more noise !

I was not sure,But thought you might have meant noisy exhaust leak,I do have a good sense of humor,and enjoy the sarcastic whit of some members,no offense taken at all.Just getting old and the mind is slowing.Sax

Same here with mind slowing and old age creaping up ! My Jagd and Tiger about the same, Jagd speaker not under the grille though so may account for any slight difference.
