Hi Dan it is possible to use a Tamiya apple ,but there are drawbacks ,The apple used with the SLU has to be cut in half (sharp intake of breath) then you have to wire the TBU to the lower half.Tim has a wiring diagram,but needless to say any sort of warrenty goes out thewindow.

I havnt tried it and wont now ,we have our own club so we can make the rules to suit the members,at the momment its bring what you have and runit (no BBs allowed)sowe are starting with a clean sheet some have Tamiyasystems a couple of DBCs and a few SLUs and the odd El-mod.The Tamiyas are outnumbered by othertypes,so they will have to conform to the rules forthe many.(when we get round to sorting them)

regards pete
