Thanks.

Here is some pictures of a little progress. I mounted the elevation motor were the old turret rotation motor was. I was orginally going to add a spring to the top of the recoil unit similiar to the way HL does with their airsoft units. But there isn't enough room to squeeze it in so I added 7 grams of lead instead. I also mounted the El Mod CSI unit in the superstructure under the left hatch so I could change the battle configuration without opening the tank. The on/off switch is also located in this hatch. I moved the volume knob to inside the rear of the cupola. The last picture shows IMO the hardest part of the build. Getting everything to fit in the PZIII chassis. It was quite a mess but I did manage to clean it up. The top of the battery compartment is now actually clear of all wires because if it isn't the gun will not elevate. I didn't take any pictures before I closed it up thou. I've since added the first coat of paint. I'll have to try to get some more pictures later.
