a good find me thinks, but you would not need to scratch build it, its based on a panzer 1V chassis, so modifying the turret is all thats needed, more or less, i may do that to a p4 when i get one

i would but...

note the turret elevation system,

just the gun doesn't go up and down, the whole inside turret goes up and down !!! im just trying to figure out how i would do that with the stock hl turret elevation!!  :o :o :o :o

cheers,

Matt

A servo mounted to the turret ring might be your best bet for the elevation. You could use a DBCRC2 module and plug the servo in to the channel where the gun elevation would go.
