I ordered this small amp and want to check where the single pin signal lead from the TBS should hook up to?
Power input seems to be on two outer pins. The inner pins for signal input. What pin or pins would the TBS attach to?

Just set it up..outside of tank atm.
Works perfectly. Very impressive how quickly the smoke generates and blows out per cannon trigger! Also great installation guide:)

Seems there is a tiny 3 volt fan but it's $25!

Thanks Luke. A 3 volt fan would work but seems they are only 5v. I'll work around it.
I was using a relay switch but going to try the barrel smoke using those outputs.

Set up 5 volt aux for fan and it works.
Is there a way to boost fan voltage?
I tried a voltage booster I used to increase 7.4 volts to heater on another tank. But it didn't register any voltage output on the 5volt aux

Hey Luke,
Sorry for long request. Figured it out finally:)

Using TBS mini not V2 with flash V4

Hi Luke,
I have no idea what I might be missing/wrong here. I have some old, programed TBS units that work all fine but I don't or can't see what the parameters or prop settings were...but they work fine per the TCB and Sounds.
I tried to reconfigure an old TBS to update it with Leo engine sounds and re-do the parameters and prop setting, but some odd things are going on. The engine starts and runs. Cannon fires and machine gun works. But the sound for transmission is silent. The Turret sound works but at the end of the travel fires the cannon? I don't hear any track squeeks or breaking sounds. I do have at the moment the turret sound as user sound 3 (slot 11)
Sounds after engine
1 Empty
2 Elevation
3 Cannon
4 Mig
5 Mig dyn out
9 Transmission sound
10 Braking sound
11 Turret
12 Squeek
13 Squeek
14 Squeek

Just checking as it's been a while since using it. When you load a new set of sounds on the TBS mini, does it erase the parameters and prop setting or just sounds?

Thanks! Glad I double checked

Just a quick double check..if I use the RC version of the sabertooth ..I can just plug the CH 1 and CH 2 in the TCB just as they are correct? No need to eliminate a wire per the warning about esc.

Again Luke, thank you for your help.
It is tricky being busy with so many other things so after several years coming back to this and trying to remember everything! I now recall the visual for the older sound units parameter setting was flash V3. I think if I download that will allow them to connect.
Funny though I loaded a new set of sounds for this Leo project into my working original Mini. Put everything in the sound slots, made sure it worked setting wise with TCB. Set parameters and everything was way off..turret triggering cannon sound and other crazy suff. Only thing correct was engine and machine gun. It was driving me nuts..checking everything over and over until I realized I also needed to set PROP settings!!..then all was fine:)
This new V2 I think just needs a new proper cable hook up perhaps not the one I wired out of the old benedini cable to run the original and older Dasmikro unit.
Now to wire up new Leo for TCB and eventually add barrel smoke per your video instructions.
Thanks
Thomas

Thanks Luke. So frustrating as there is nothing that comes with these and no support. It looks like a v2 but won't connect and my older ones did but don't now. The only one that still works is the original benedini. Too bad he was..the designer..forced to quit.
