Hi Chris

for the gearboxes have a look here http://rctankwarfare.co.cc/forums/viewt ... f=1&t=4079
your basic smoke and sound upgrade package should sort you out new board(rx14/rx18) and controller

hi Chris

this is how I did my KT with a set of standard HL metal gearboxes, cheap, quick and effective.

The answer is no im afraid chris have tried it

the pots are all round the wrong way but if you fancy converting it to h/long tx board it isnt to difficult but you will need to re-wire the potentiometers in the controller

thanks fv432 i could use one of the other h/l controllers i have as i have 5 h/l tanks and how do i get the front drive sprockets off and cant seem to remove hubcaps, another problem is the gun barrel is glued to the mantlet

chris

thats what i would do chris just swap out the crystals on the controller

the front drive sprockets inner hub cover pops off and is a real b***h to get of so patience and effort should see you ok it needs quite a bit of brute force without trying to damage it

thanks again fv432 for your help as you say a bugger to get off did it without any damage

thanks
chris
