Since I messed up the little aftermarket storage box that I bought for this tank, I decided to salvage the tiny brass hinges from it (I HATE them so much!). With a razor blade, I was able to open the stock storage box lid. After removing all of the unwanted interior plastic with a Dremel, it works.

LED in Barrel update...

Just put them in the post, I assume you still want them?
I sent you an email with pictures did you get it?

Yours Simon M.

Simon, I replied to the e-mail you sent through RCU pm (went to Yahoo address), but it did not appear in my inbox here on the forum. The reply must not have worked either, probably due to the forum being under duress at that time (hackers?!!). Maybe it was lost in the confusion. [)]

Let me know how much everything, including shipping, ended up being. I appreciate the extra effort that you put into that modification!!! [sm=teeth_smile.gif]

Thanks Again!

Hi, I like the upgrades to your HL PIII , I was wondering whether you have thought about using some sort of variable valve type thing ( like an exhaust butterfly valve ) and modification to the wiring to the smoke generator to make it proportional ?

What I mean is, if you make just the smoke generator proportional, there will be a delay between the power being applied and more smoke being generated, a problem which could be solved by using a simple micro servo setup with a piece of plastic tube and the servo arm working a butterfly type exhaust valve. The fit of the valve doesn't have to even be that accurate by any means, just quite a crude setup would I think do wonders, what do you think?

I would love to see someone implement this. Has anyone so far managed this? If so, any chance of a web linky?

I'd have tried it myself were it not for the fact that I've only got a Gepard in it's box unbuilt and don't have a runner tank at all yet, I'm wanting to get the HL P3 for Xmas.

Cheers,

Alistair G.
