The sound system for starting the motor and revving the engine. When the turret turns left or right that sound comes on, when the tank is not moving the idling sound is on. When a paintball is fired, the main gun firing sound will be heard.

The electronic speed control and fan unit for the turret rotate motor, runs smooth and provides great control. It is hooked up to a second servo that has 2 micro switches that activate the sound when the turret is turning. The motor used is a 12 volt window motor from a car.

This and the next picture are at a Remote Control show with an outdoor race track.

The motors used are 2 EV Warrior motors. I am waiting for a new speed control that will handle the power of them. I did some tests with a different speed control. It worked great on level ground but going up an incline the speed control couldn't handle the amp draw. So, next month I hope to have new speed control. Then off to battle.
