If that works for you all, OK, but those three posted alternative kluged solutions, seem to be less than elegant turret design fixes and really do not address the Tamiya Leo design flaw; battery placement.

Operational Empirical Observation: The turret base in my Leo 2, going on six years old now, is straight as an arrow with the DMD, servo, stabilizer and wiring in place, but with no sag, no warping, no kluged fixes and also no tank battery on it (primary culprit). Just as important, during IR play battery swap outs the lift deck solution is great, because it is not awkward to do or use.

And submitted to better upset the Tamiya Leo 2 builder herd and for design consideration for "fizzymike's" build: a Leo 2 hinged DMD hatch cover by "DT" for easy access during battle games, plus you will not misplace the hatch cover.



Merry Christmas,
