The basic test fitting of parts indicates they should all go together well. Here are a few more "just out of the box" photos.
YES that is a rifled barrel.

Tested the turret function for flash, recoil, elevation and IR firing. All functions worked. Then went on to the dreaded part of the turret build adding the mantle cover. Ended up not being overly complicated just time consuming.
Testing flash and recoil. Video is posted on my Instagram @ fsttanks.
Mantle cover going on.
Finished and dry fitted on lower hull for photo op. Only took 2 1/2 hours!!

Turret storage rack installation.
With the instillation of the racks the turret is really starting to get heavy and is taking on a nice bulky look.
Shown above and below "dry fitted " to the lower hull.
Next phase is building and wiring the spotlight. With all the options this turret has stock from DKLM it will be pushing the HL 7.1 to its functional limit.

I use the WiFi channel (CN5, G&S buttons) for auxiliary lights, like a beacon or spotlight. I turn the taillights into brake lights so I can use the taillight slot for the LegoDEI lights. I’ve used the launch light for a laser light, pretty cool. A very versatile board.
I see your "backdoor" battery hatch. Great idea!Twenty six tanks, and not done yet!
