.AJ. Posted December 19, 2014 Author Share Posted December 19, 2014 The turret rotation didn't really work as well as I wanted, so to plan B.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted December 19, 2014 Author Share Posted December 19, 2014 Only problem is now my speaker box doesn't fit, so after a bit of hunting around ive found a nice 80x80x40 box that should fit a treat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 How did you fix the gear wheel on the servo? Just drill an undersize hole and jam it on? I was planning a similar setup...though I can't use a proper servo...I would have to remove the control board and just use the motor as a motor hooked up to the stock power supply ( no facility for servo traverse...just servo recoil and elevation on the Clark board ) The more I listen to the whine of the stock motor the worse it sounds to me. I got several old servos...any one of which would be fine for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 Yep, just opened up the hole and bashed it on lol I'll get a vid up later, it's still a bit noisey, but 100% better than the stock set up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 Just had a thought mate, how about run a Y Lead from the RX channel for the rotation, one side for the Clark and then the other to a 360 servo and if it runs too fast get a Turnigy Servo speed controller?

The left/right operation on the left stick is traverse.....so using a y-lead should be fine. It won't interfere with the other options which use that channel along with other inputs.

.AJ. Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 A little bit more noise than the direct drive set up, but the speed is spot on now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Wasn't really that hard, found a programming guide and an hour later it's all working, the various switches control all the functions and the left stick now only does turret elevation and rotation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Not really a lot to show off, the main difference is that the extra controls ie cannon fire, MG, smoke on/off, light on/off etc have now been assigned to the switches instead of having to hold the sticks in odd positions lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
