Hi. I was looking for info on using Tamiya's Sport Tuned RS-540 motors for Leopard 2A6 and stumbled on this thread. Apologies for the thread necromancy, as I didn't want to start a new thread.
HI524, did you pursue the plan of installing the Sport Tuned RS-540 motors in your HL Leo2A6? I'm looking to upgrade the speed and torque of my HL Leo2 but I know next to nothing on doing such modifications. I'm after it running at realistic/scale speed with the current Mato metal tracks installed. Thanks in advance.

Don't know about the HL capacity.

Older Elmod TankModule ECO/PRO or new Elmod Fusion ECO/PRO can drive 540 type motors without problems. In addition new Elmod Fusion with firmware v. 1.02 or newer can drive 540 motors with Tamiya Leopard 2A6 type gearboxes. It have also possibility to set up the motor PWM switching frequency up to 5kHz (its higher than in Tamiya modules) - higher frequency , more smooth running.

this esc only handles the motors. for the turret function and the lights you have to connect to another multifunction unit. i used the tk22 from clark.
but there are other options. wsn123 has a link to ELMOD fusion pro. you might want to check it out too.

separate connection.
tk22 for turret and lights(all other functions except the motors) via 2.4ghz rcvr
t2000 for 540 motors only via another 2.4ghz rcvr but controlled by same RC transmitter
5000mah batt for t2000
800mah batt for tk22
its complicated. the Elmod fusion pro might be a better solution though.
