2025 ARMORTEK KIT SURVEY

Over the last few years we have brought out a whole series of kits as a direct result of your feedback - kits like the Pershing, JagdPanther, Hetzer, Leopard 2A4, and more recently the Sd Kfz 7, 88mm Flak 36 and the upcoming Challenger 2.

So, in keeping with what has become and annual tradition, here is your opportunity to once again influence our future production plans.

We have added in some "guide pricing" next to the names of the models. This is a rough estimate of the price at the current rates.

Thanks in advance for your input and we look forward to the results.

R617FS RECEIVER

Post by Graham Ord »

Hi All
Can anybody read the back of their R617FS receiver and tell me the number shown in the red circle as I need to replace the part which has blown. When it blew it burnt out the number.
I have a friendly electronics wizz kid who can then replace it.
Many Thanks
Graham

Smoothing cap on the 5V supply.

Unusual for just that to detonate - they can fail due to old age, or over-voltage conditions.

Hi All
Had to fit a new receiver, now all I have is forward/reverse and turn.
May be coming to the end of its electronic life and be in need of someone else to give it TLC.
