Default VIDEO!!HL electrics in marui tiger I project! UPDATED!

always wanted to do this but never thought it would fit but i thought i can use a very small 2cell lipo battery and may be able to get it working so i ripped it all up in hopes that i can get it to work... I may be able to put the RX in the top of the tank in by the air gun i will have to see but this is what i have as of now!

everything i put into place and it looks like it may all fit and work!!
I stuck the RX up on the top inside of the tanks lid and also placed the speaker on it.... The RX is wrapped in Tommy tape silicone self adesing tape and all electrics are sprayed with corrosion X so no snow or wetness will harm them.
Now i have to let it all dry up and then figure out how to wire all the wires up for the turret and gun!

Very nice work... amazing you got everything to fit. Funny, it wasn't to long ago that everyone was trying to get away from HL electronics and now we're putting them into everything else! [even though you used an old RX13 board]. You going to convert others? I have an RX18 board with the new HL/VSTank sound I ripped out of my Panther if you want it?

Thanks Guy's!
No problem that snow was killer but my bull dog just ate it up and ran like a champ in it...that's my new snow battle beast for sure
Hi Ern thanks ...you did own a VS tank right.... I could have swarn HL coppied that horrid sound in the RX18 when i first heard it on line in a video.... Is it true is it realy just like the VS sound?

If so i would stick with a RX13 or RX14 any day!

No I never got the 1/24 VS, just the VS*R little ones... because of their sound board and no idle sound. The new HL really reminded me of the VS so I took it out of the Panther G when I got it and replaced it with a RX14.

My 1/24 purchases are on hold for now, thanks to someone listing the Creeping Death PzIII in the classifieds. I can wait though. It will just give FOV time to put out new stuff or VSTank to get their new stuff out there [hopefully]
