Rey, I would agree, but unfortunately, I don't believe the current boards have programming to initiate a reload for a limited ammo count unless the tank is actually switched Off & On again to reset the entire board. I'm just going from a couple quick tests here, where I just tried limited ammo count on a TK22 board, & after running out of the 8 shot limit I had set, I used the remote to initiate a few repair modes on it. Though my hit points were restored after each repair mode was done, I still had no main gun ammo to shoot any more.

It would make sense though, if you are going to have limited ammo, that there would also be a way to reload more while in the game & without turning the tank Off then On again, just as there is a way to repair damage in game. If there isn't a specific ammo reload signal, then the existing repair mode seems like it would have been a natural choice for that option; as the tank is repaired, it also has its ammo count replenished.

I'll bet Clark could add this to the repair mode programming for future boards easily enough, & to me seems like it would be a natural choice & good feature to include with the repair mode for sake of taking advantage of the advanced battle features the board offers ... would make it a bummer for current board owners who wanted to have the same advantage during battles, because old boards would have to be returned for new programming once again.

Hi Craig,

Indeed I agree that repair button (1) could have been best integrated with an ammo replenish signal. However, as Clark had mentioned a few months back that a dedicated repair tank TK22 wouldbe released, hence I think "ammo replenishment" may not be integrated to button 1 as marketability of this dedicated TK would deminish. The repair/service vehicle could propbably have a primary "weapon" as a repair signal whislt secondary would be ammo replenishment.

I've also tried same test as you did using the 1 button (ammo loadout at 8). After expending all ammo and with the tank hit once, button 1 only repaired the vehicle, no ammo reload.

cheers../Rey

That's right Rey, now that you remind me, I do remember something he said about a dedicated repair vehicle a while ago.

The issue I still see possible is that if he didn't foresee this as an expansion option from the beginning during design, there won't be any separate embedded IR code in any of the older board programming to utilize this feature if a dedicated repair tank board is created with this secondary ammo replenish sequence, meaning the older boards would still have to be returned for programming upgrades so they recognize the new IR code for ammo replenish. However, if he did have the foresight to add a separate ammo replenish IR code in the programming of the all the boards already sold, then at least boards won't have to be returned for an upgrade like with prior fixes.

I guess it could be kind of cool having one IR code repair when using the primary weapon while a separate IR code for ammo replenish would be sent out using the secondary weapon, as it adds more variations & tactical thinking during a battle. Though I still would have liked the current repair mode to have done the ammo replenishment too, especially since all the boards are originally sold with the option to specifically choose the Bergpanzer repair mode as the primary weapon option so you can create a repair vehicle in the first place.

Just as a test, I tried every button on the remote to see if any of them would initiate an ammo reload on my TK22 board, but no remote button would work for that feature.

Did the same tests and thought of that too Craig. Perhaps now, only Clark can say with certainty if all released board have the potential to receive the IR code for ammo rep.

B/Man

Sounds great Clark. I just happen to have a dusty old HL Pershing on the shelf that's been waiting for something like this.

Bagheera

I have 2 Pershings waiting. Can't wait till Freakydude has them in stock

clarkmodel

Thanks B/Man & Jaws01,

We finally find all sound effects we need and put them together to make this M26 version.

Regards,
Clark

clarkmodel

I'm also surprised when I test TK22-M26 board first time, the Ford engine sound itself is very nice and attractive, no wonder I got many request for M26 version.

tomhugill

Very nice Clark, definite improvement over thé previous frequency shift type engine effects!

clarkmodel

Actually, engine driver is still the same, maybe Ford engine sound characteristic is good for our design.

clarkmodel

Hello everyone,

Is anyone here also flying electric RC airplane? I have some technical specification question about RC airplane sound module and ESC to discuss. please let me know if you are familiar with it.

On the other hand, few announcements.
- TK22 price is increased a little due to FET component cost is almost doubled due to high demand from electric car market,


Thanks,
Clark

HL T-34 is released.

Strato50

I'll take 2

I guess it's released just in China for now?

clarkmodel

Yes, I think so.

Panther G

Clark, PLEASE make a board for an Abrams. Or at least a sound file that can be loaded on one of the existing boards. I have an HE Abrams loaded with El-Mod and i hate it . it is too complicated for me to work on and use on any type of regular basis.

TigerTankMan

According to the his website - he has one coming out in Oct.

clarkmodel

Yes, we will release M1 version in middle of Oct. here is the preview, only engine sound is not finalized.

Oh thank God. You are life saver. i have been dicking about with this Abrams for about 3 years and i just want it done and working. A couple of months will be nothing to wait now. I am so glad to hear it. And i love the TK-22 Leo 2 board i have.

clarkmodel

You're welcome. I'm so glad to hear that you like our TK22 Leo2 board.

Thanks,

Hello All,

We just sold out 2013 production batch 2, so please contact our regional distributor for stock left if you need our product in the follows weeks. release schedule for production batch 3 depends on key component( FET )delivery schedule and is not 100% determined yet for now.

Thanks for your support
Clark
