Does the new recoil unit have smoke coming out of the barrel and when will it be available?

Many Thanks Allan

Hi All

Did anyone take any pictures of the new electronic setup at the 2019 open day?

Was any video taken and up loaded anywhere?

Cheers

Hello!
A month ago, Allan asked a question about the new Recoil module, whether the smoke module can now be integrated here. I would also be interested in whether smoke can be simulated after a shot now.
Cheers
Michael

We have the system running, and running well, on the bench with the recoil unit. The next step is to install it into the Chieftain to finalise the design. After that production can start. For this we need time .. and unfortunately as a small company, time is very difficult to find !
So, the short answer is .. it is coming, but we need to do a bit more work first. We will post some video once it is installed in the Chieftain.

Hello Kian,

Will it be only for the chieftain or will it be available to other models too?
This sunday i will receive my first armortek model M3 Lee so it would be nice if i can implement it in the Lee..
Keep us informed and thanks for the effort.

Pleased to hear that the barrel smoke system has not been shelved and that things are moving forward. Will this be triggered by the same signal as the recoil?

Hi All
Have purchased the 2019 electronics for my Tiger 1 (F01). Does anyone know what voltage is delivered at the XT-60s... are they all 24V nominal or have some been reduced (sound for example in the expectation of driving the Benedini card)?

Thanks,
Alastair

Hi all

I am trying to confirm the voltage available at the spare power connection on the red power module. Unfortunately I have not replaced my broken Fluke meter yet so have no way of measuring the voltage myself.
Thanks in advance.

Regards
Gary

Thankyou, I thought that would be the case but needed to double check. On with the build :D

Hi Michael Röder,
a friend of mine who has an old panther,
he mounted a recoil with servo,
he has the old electronics in silver aluminum,
but i don't know what kind of recoil it is,
I know it's from Armortek with a Savox servo

Hello!

I tested a new red recoil module with the old silver amplifer module. Unfortunately, this combination doesn't work for me. :(
