Tony - you think the wires you have now are a rats nest? You ain't seen nothin' yet. Just wait until you get to the turret. I should know. I cleaned mine up last night, and to my surprise, the upper turret fit on first try. I love a victory like that. It probably could be cleaner, but Tamiya's wiring example works pretty well.

Yeah man, looks like I have a few obstacle to overcome. It feels like I'm so close to being done, but I've only just begun! lol I was looking at the next few pages, and I finally get to deal with some of the infamous fiber optic. Looking at the design or layout per se, Tamiya could have really took theopportunityto make this a totally wireless turret which swivels on contact rings for full 360 rotation with no concern for wire tangles. Guess they didn't want to open up that can of worms! lol If I had the tools, that would be done in an instant!
