panther recoil

Post by yves mouton »

Hello,

I have a question about the panther recoil,
in my instructions is no picture how to place the servo, you can place the servo in two ways,
first with the turning point of the servo at the front ( pointed at the barrel ) and with the the turning point of the servo at
the back of the turret.

Best regards Yves

With the barrel in the correct "at rest" position in the mantlet, the end of the link arm which fits between the barrel end and the servo arm should make it clear which way round the servo needs to be installed.

The servo arm needs to be angled forwards when the gun is at rest, so that it moves towards the rear to create the recoil action.
