Default Tamiya Leopard 2a6 Behavior

I just test battled my Tamiya Leopard 2a6 and was stunned to discover that everytime I got shot, the tank would stop all movement and not allow any actions. Has anyone else with this tank had this problem?

<font size="2">It shouldn't be doing that.  It acts as any other F/O tank when hit.  It keeps on going, until the final hit of course.  I'd suggest verifying the battery charge, and then check all the pins in your GFS plug at the DMD.  Sometimes one or two will work its way out.

Batteries were all fully charged. But will recheck wiring.

Just an FYI for anyone that has or is thinking about buying a Leopard. The Leopard was confirmed by Tamiya that when hit, it pauses everything for about 1 second. This is the behavior as designed. I basically told them that this behavior was not present on any of the WW2 era tanks. They said, that this was the case as well. I have 2 WW2 era tanks that are stock and out of the box with only the battle unit installed without any other mods and my tanks continue to allow movement and firing. I was using this tank at the AAF Tank Museum in Danville with another Leopard and it too did the same.

I've never noticed that on mine, but that's good information, and thanks for sharing!
