Re: turret limit switches
Hi Ray, Here is a picture of the set up in my Tiger. This is not a tank I built but I hope it helps you with your set up.
Best regards
Malcolm

Re: turret limit switches
Hello Ray
Malcolm's set up is the design that was used on older models. Dennis has made his own bracket up as a special. On your model the limit switches are designed to fit on either side of the recoil bracket. Holes and fasteners are provided in the kit. You can see the three holes in the illustration in your motion pack instructions, but we have omitted to tell you they are for the limit switches. Once in place the arms can be bent to act against the floor for max elevation and the roof for min.
Regards
Mark
