RE: Tamiya DMD T-01 - can it be hooked to a MF unit?
I think the T-01 does not have the connector socket that is on the T-03 which allows it to be connected to the MF-01 unit. It probably would not function correctly with the MF even if it did have it. You will most likely need to replace it with a T-03 DMD if you want to convert it to FO.
Out of curiosity, did your Porsche KT kit include a recoil unit, or does it only have an elevation unit? Must be elevation only, now that I think about it because the recoil unit on the FO kit connects to the MF unit, only the elevation connects to the DMD.
