M16 Halftrack, A test case
Hello all,
Well just for fun and annoyance I decided to play around with adding El-Mod electronics to the WSN M16 Quad Gun-motor carrage(read that halftrack)
1st tests done with the El-mod x22 electronics unit(the one for armored cars) were so cool.
I started kicking around the idea about maybe going ahead and using a full El-Mod Tank setup.
Well I did and it works in fact better than I had hoped.
So here is the run down...
Full functionally including combat ready, full EL-Mod sound.
Headlights, Brake lights.
the choice of weapon was an issue for a while though, so was decided that would go with a TD format first, that said I borrowed the 75mm
PAK40 from my german halftrack project and used it for the 1st unit. (planning a servo recoil for the 75)
And we have success, I'm sure there will be some issues with game play, but seeing it running on the field mite make up for any issues.
Because of limitations in the electronics I have set the Halftrack as a medium as this keeps the rate of fire to a reasonable level
I'm working on version2 which I hope will "clean-up" some of the grey areas.
Still working out the use of the quad 50s....or maybe a flak38
I plan to post some pictures soon as I can get some taken.
Regards
