Default Tamiya recoil , need help

Hi Guys

I have a customer who was wanting some help with installing a Tamiya recoil in a Nick T23 turret. Has anyone got some pictures to share on how you might have done it on your build. Not looking for electrical help just mechanical.

Thanks

I bolted the recoil unit to the cross member:

I've done this a few times, the trick it to make sure you get the unit lined up with the barrel so that they don't collide at max recoil...

Just use the Tamiya recoil mount for the Pershing. Bolts right up (with some drilling) with no problem. It can be had for around 7 bucks on eBay.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy

Or, a more complicated way is to use a servo.

Yeah, I've heard that about you. Oh ye of little faith, but at least I know what I am talking about.
