I love it Don! Great work. For those of not servo savy, could something like this be used with a standard Heng Long set up, or is El Mod required? What will it connect to to cause the brass tube to move?
Would love to see the build pics/


Hey Ern, although EL MOD does have the extra servo channels and extra sound availiblity!!! As long you have an open channel that can drive a DC motor you could do this! Example with a Stug III for instance the turret rotation is not used, you can connect the bottom of the figure to a cam or geared down rotation, so he moves slow enough it can be done like that! Heck you could probably tap off the gun power and have him start sighting in right before every cannon shot as well!

The Blitz


Hey Blitz,
Not sure if that will work as I think you need a servo that work both directions. I 'think' that when the head turns clockwise the arm raises and when it turns counter clockwise the arm drops.
