Default RE: Receiver Hook-up

Hi Weapon,

You can go about it a couple of ways. As wackywheelz posted, you can you El-mod modules (http://www.el-mod.de) which is what I did with my T-34. You can also use a 4-6 channel radio without the El-mod modules. If your TX has a mixing fuction (ex. V-Tail, flaperon), you can use that to control the two motors for steering. If your TX doesn't have a mixing function, you can use a V-Tail mixer. You can get one at Duck's Hobby at the Makati Cinema Square. You can then use the other channels for turret rotation, gun elevation, cannon, and machine gun by using switches and/or converting regular servos to continuous rotation ones. If you go this route, you will lose the sound effects. It's possible to still get sound by using using a Sound Generator (http://www.westbourne-models.com/erol.html#4704X0). Haven't tried it myself though.

Where do you buy your HL Tanks, btw?
