Forgot to mention that I had to reverse the positive & neg lead on the two wires coming from the right motor Before I did that the Tank would only go forward moving the right Tranmitter lever to the right. it was weird, but after checking I discoverd the in full forward position, one track went forward the other went in reverse . It is trckey to re-solder the connection at the motors so I cut the two leads and re-soldered them and used heat shrink tubing . Works great now , even the Barrel illiuminated and the machine gun fire with out the Barrel going ip & Down

Its a really easy mod and works great. you do have to reverse the 2 wires on the right motor like 19th Alta said. The originall wiring config wont work with an HL radio.

The gearbox is OK, but you will need RX-14 board, receiver, crystals and heng long radio! You will need to change of the wiring some, but here is wacky's directions!
