Default No switch?

So my new Heng Long Sherman just arrived. So, where is the safety switch located or did they forget to install one? Will have to open her up.

There is no switch for the airsoft cannon on the new versions. Wouldn't be hard to add one, but I think they should have done that. You can't just fire the cannon without the airsoft cycling on these new ones either.

One less switch X 5000 Tanks = Less cost to build, that is Heng long, always inventing.

Great little tank👍

Yep, that's because they made the barrel elevation true up/down rather than cyclic like before.

One more question, when I press the K button nothing happens, should something work when I do. To fire the cannon I have to depress the silver button (right) on the transmitter and raise the left stick to the top. Is this all working correctly? Thanks guys.

Yep one bad part of the new 2.4 you actually have to shot the airsoft gun now to make the canon sound.
