Really tidy work. I'm almost thinking about stripping down my Stug and starting again!

After tackling the recoil I wanted to add main gun smoke. A special thanks to Paul Sparkes who inspired me to try doing it myself, and who was always ready to answer my questions, regardless of the time difference, lol.

I decided to replace the sound with a Beier USM-RC-3 which Paul recommended. The Beier USM-RC-3 is really great to work with, you can add any sound you can think of and has so many options for controlling sound, light and in this case the recoil. I finally got the timings of the smoke, light, recoil and sound of the main gun worked out.

If you listen close, that tank commander sounds a lot like the late great Donald Sutherland, aka Oddball.

That does sound like oddball - just watched that movie couple nights ago. Really nice on recoil n smoke - looks great.

Yes, great, like the sound etc, good job....

Also like Kelly's Heroes..... A while back a friend and I were going to watch it but the wives were not keen..... We convinced them by saying that it was really just Oceans 11 with tanks..... .

Hey Ho.....

Love the recoil, sound, and smoke. Inside looks so clean and neat. Excellent jobs!
Best,

I hope to this in my Tiger also.
Really nice job you did here.

Thank you for the kind words. It is very rewarding to envision an Idea like the recoil and smoke, and with the help of folks on this forum, build it and see it working.
