Slip Ring in HL Pershing

Post by strmnd54 »

Finally made some early progress on the "smoking gun project" using my HL Pershing as a test bed ...( Replacing the Panzer IV) ...
The early phases of the project involved fitting an Asiatam recoil system in the Pershing( which was easier said than done ); and the installation of a 12 Wires 2 Amps Slip Ring for a 360 degrees turret rotation ....
The recoil still needs some fine tuning ; but the turret rotation is a blast .... :lolno: :lolno: :lolno:
Here's some early results ....

Your choice depends of the number of wires and the Amperage that you need for your projects ... 8)

Thanks ...Those 3:1 Asiatam gearboxes in the Pershing are giving a good low speed control ; even when using the "toy like " stock H.L. transmitter . :D :D :D
