Build photos continued.

Note: 1. I did not photograph each small assembly step this time. But I am sure you can see the process from the instruction manual.

2. The mantle pivot points use bushing that are the small size as the ones intended for the road wheels. Since I had bearings of the same size I swapped out the supplied bushing for bearing. This step is indicated by the photo with the tip of the screwdriver pointed at the diagram.




Wires to right of turret are for the IR bulb not flash. This will be installed when the battle system goes in shortly.

Replaced bushing with bearing. IMO it made the movement of the mantle much smoother.
