<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Hi chaps, i need help from the ‘electronically’ talented people in this board<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">I’m immersed in a new project, a Wirbelwind based in an old HL PzIV chassis. I want to hold the costs to a minimum, and I would like to use the HL electronics, the HL remote and a beier sound card for the sounds. I already own them, so I do not have to expend money in this area. <o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The alternative could be the future Taipan board, or the RC2HL solution, but the shipping costs from OZ to Spain are ‘devastating’…<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Without taking into account the use of recoiling, if possible at all, I would like to know what you think about my idea, if it’s feasible or do you have any other way to do it… so:<o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">
- imagine a turret less HL PzIV, with the Wirbelwind one installed and with the flakvierling inside<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">- imagine that no servos would be used for elevation of the guns or rotating the turret, only engines.<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">- the turret rotation would be the same as any other HL<o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The standard HL ‘8 wires’ group of cables going from the RX18 to the upper hull is distributed in this way:<o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">- there would be no tank gun or recoil or fire system, then the pin 3 (blue) would be free<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">- it would be possible to use the pins 6 and 8 for MG shooting to fire the flakvierling LEDs with the K button<o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">- on the remote, stick down controls the tank gun elevation, but on a cyclic way, the engine always runs in the same direction (no polarity reverse)<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Well, have I said any incorrect?<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;"><o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Now, the possible solution to have elevation and depression of the flakvierling , up or down, without the cyclic thing, and is here where I need your thoughts and advice!<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;"><o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Could be possible, to use the ‘liberated’ pin 3 (blue) (remember, no tank gun to be fired) to make the elevation engine to turn in the opposite way? <o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">With some electronic component? A polarity inverter? A relay? An H bridge?...?<o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="ES-TRAD" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;"><o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">If this i just said could be doable, then the guns could be fired with the remote’s K button, the remote’s sticks down and up to control the flak elevation…<o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;"><o

></o

></span></p><p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span lang="EN-US" style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">What do you think? Do you have any other idea to achieve what I want?<o
