With a Heng Long tank, if one holds down the mg button for a few seconds, it seems that an IR flash is emitted and a hit can be scored.
I have some detail questions about this. I presume the main gun's IR circuit gets activated after the 5 seconds or so that the mg button is pressed. If yes, is the strength and duration of that IR flash the same as when it is fired by the main gun?
I ask this because there is a set of Thingiverse STL files for a 1/16 scale Flakpanzer IV Kugelblitz mobile anti-aircraft gun. The designer 's files include a complete tank, but I'm assessing the feasibility of taking a HL Pz IV and modifying it for this. I'd put an IR bulb in a "non-scale" short tube in between the two scale barrels and use the mg circuit to fire the IR flash.
