Default Caught up

I think i am caught up now, got a kv-1, stug III and jagdpanther, all HL with their I/R system. The recoil is cool but I don't like the jerk back from the drive, has anyone figured out how to disable that?

The DBC board you can eliminate the heng long tank jerk when the gun is fired, and the supper spin if you want! Plus a true inertia drive to the tank!

It's amazing, considering how many people have been complaining from day one about that stupid whole tank jerk, and these tank makers haven't picked up and eliminated it. Same with the super spin...no tank ever ran like that, but they still don't change anything.
I wonder if they ever read these forums? They sure don't respond to customer input.

Only thing that happens on guns larger than 57mm is the recoil movement of the gun with a slight rocking motion and even an M-41 in neutral steer takes about 6-8 seconds for a full pivot without worries about throwing a track. Nice to see that Phil has DBC boards to kill these toy tricks.

Watching films, it looks like when a tank fires it remains still and everything else shakes.

Hey
Do you think if we all write and ask the manufacture for some changes they mite listen I think. But it can't hurt to try. We are the ones that buy there products. First letter we all could ask about the spin and tank jurk, what do you think. Give it ago. I have sent a couple of letters to HL about there products about a real looking Pather.

Tanks and cheers
John

Hi

To stop the HL Jerk you can use one of the Platine ARM-02 für RX14/RX18 from TankModelbau - link below. I have used one in my STUG III and also Jagdpanther prior to starting work to convert it to a TAM DMD unit. Works a treat and as a company they are excellent to deal with.

Hope this helps

cheers
