PART 2: Electronic

This part will be short. The TD control system is similar to the HengLong 6.0/7.0 systems and has many of the same features. Although similar the driving dynamics are slightly different and the TD M60 has starting / stopping inertia built in and the HengLong systems more less do not.

I am not a fan of the TD inertia algorithm, but some people might like it. I also do not feel the overall handling is as good as the newer HengLong 7.0/7.1 systems so I decided to change it over to a 7.1 system. The 7.1 made it possible to further upgrade to servo recoil and elevation. Why did I not use something more advanced like Tamiya DMD11 or Clark? Simple, the M60 has not yet proven itself worth putting something more in it. Although this initial sentiment is changing fast.


TD control systems as used in the M60. Although similar in appearance it is not exactly the same as the HengLong 6.0/7.0 systems.


Other then the control system the remaining electronic are pretty much off the shelf HengLong in nature.

End of PART 2. I also just post a short test run video on my Instagram & fsttanks. Feel free to take a look.

PART 3: To be continued....
