RE: radio check [TANKS]

["Tony Swallow" <tony_swallow-at-hotmail.com>]

Hia Joe,

I recently purchased one of those cheap "Made in China" 1:16 scale tanks to 
muck around with and interestingly enough it seems to run on 4 channels 
despite been turrented, Two channels for the tracks, one for turrent rotate, 
and the fourth for Gun elevate AND Shoot, Push the joystick Down and the gun 
cycles between up and down. Push it UP and it shoots. I guess if you have 3 
channels then you could use a turrentless AFV (a lot of these look COOL) 
with a similar system.
