Here is my tiger 1. It uses an system called elmod to control movement and sound. They also make an impressive battle system which I have not added. control with futaba 7c. Sound system uses a micro ad card which comes with sounds for various tanks. You can program your own sounds in also such as the music trac. I would recommend this electronic system. It handles weight well. Does not overheat.

I can send you details of a good supplier for the electronics. Can send you some photos of the interior set up also if you like. Tiger is currently undergoing repaint. I have the samesystem in my panzer iii but having problems with the gun recoil.

Yes please John. That would help no end

is the tiger metal construction?

I have just got this 1/16 tiger but the hull is plastic on this one. it needs a sound unit too
