Where to buy a sound module?
My M26 Pershing project is almost finished. Now I need a sound module to make sound for it. Can somebody tell me how to buy a sound module. I using my own 8ch radio to control the tank in my M26, I don't use any control board in the tank (HL, Elmod, DMD...). Since the gearbox in the tank is a older Tamiya 1 motor with 2 clutches gear box, I use 1 channel for ESC+motor, 1 channel for clutch (steering). The hardest job is 3 functions of airsoft gun control ,gun elevation, turret rotation. I solved this problem by connect a servo board for each function, they work well. Now, I need a sound module to add on. I still have 3 channels left over to add some function.

RE: Where to buy a sound module?
The easy answer is A Tamiya MFU. I don't think you are looking for that A Benedini sound board can be purchased that relates the appropriate sound to the position of the RC tansmitter stick position. Cost is about $150. Model Solutions in Canada also builds a sound board for about $200.

Those 2 are really about the best options. Cost wise atleast. Bennedini is quiteexpensive but has the absolute best sound quality of any thing on the market.
I have heard a couple of Model Solutions sound bites and they are very good also, but the Tamiya MFU is the most cost effective. you can get them from the AAF or Jasons on Ebay. But Jason does not always have every unit in stock. He breaks gits down and sells everything as parts. So what ever kits he has on hand at the time is what he has on the site as far as DMD's and MFU's.
