I received a Mato Tiger 1 from the wife for Christmas. While it and the packaging appear to be new there are a couple of things that make me wonder.
If some of you guys could help me out with the 2 things I have identified below I would greatly appreciate it.
1. The turret seems to have way too much slop. It can be lifted up about an 1/8" and is generally loose, like there is a spacer missing. Is everyone else's turret sloppy?
2. I lifted the top up about an inch or so to look inside and make sure the wires going to the turret would allow me to lift it up far enough to plug in the battery. It was already plugged in...ok, odd, but no problem. But the some of the turret functions didn't work. Closer inspection reveals 5 wires pulled out of thier splice. Even closer inspection confirms that the splices were not done correctly and resulted in cold joint solder connections. Would someone mind taking a picture of thier wiring harness so I can repair this properly as the wire colors change at that slice. Also, there is a red and black wired 2 pin connector that I cant find where it goes.SEE PICTURE
I am hoping to get these issues resolved. get it painted and attend the next SOCAL meet.
Thanx,
Chuck
