Open Panzer Help / Re: Recoil questions using TBS

« on: October 04, 2020, 02:12:26 PM »

Thanks Luke..this is the way the cannon and MG are set up on 3 pos switch.
Middle position nothing: cannon fire move up and MG down.
Mig always fires and stops fine but cannon does not trigger
recoil on first try..only flash and sound then works after that
though at times it will half recoil - barrel stays in and takes
a few tries to get it back properly.

Function

Cannon Fire           Aux Channel 4- pos  1 (of 3)
Machine Gun Fire   Aux Channel  4- pos 3 (of 3)
Machine Gun Stop  Aux Channel  4- pos 2 (of 3)

Open Panzer Help / Recoil questions using TBS

« on: October 03, 2020, 11:49:27 AM »

1.Have recoil modified and set up using stock taigen style recoil unit. Question is the way the recoil is now
set up with 3 pin..can the TBS also trigger recoil using last two sets of 3 pins? Setting up let's say
sound 3 cannon trigger and choosing  A 1-4 pins on TBS.

2. Upon start up and first try triggering cannon; sound and flash go off but no recoil. After that it works fine (?)

Thanks!

Finally got tank all wired up properly and TCB is working in every aspect perfectly. So again want to express how great not only
the design is but also the set up and instructions..perfectly clear and comprehensive.  I know this is a labor of love for those involved and it is much appreciated! So again my hope is it will be up and running in production again soon!

Yes quite a great design and somewhat surprised it isn't being grabbed up for production for all the reasons already pointed out.
So hoping soon it will be available again!

Figured it out Had start toggle "on" when powering on..so as simple as that lol. Re-centered radio and the cannon seems to fire properly
using switch now.

Open Panzer Help / Auto start not turning off?

« on: September 27, 2020, 07:11:16 PM »

Overall great experience with TCB but a few quirks..have auto start off on TBS (manual start). Start/stop on switch toggle function.
Set auto start on throttle stick. At first when power up engine would start with first movement of throttle then after use toggle for  for stop and restart.

Now when powering up tank, engine starts up with out touching anything? Took throttle start function off but still auto starts on power up?
Not a huge issue just weird and wondering if anybody had that happen?  Also cannon also fires fully when using left stick (up/ center) but not always when using trigger switch? Machine gun always works perfectly with switch.

Just want to share how much I am enjoying using the TCB! I had read quite a bit about it before and wished I bought a dozen before production stopped. But was lucky enough to get one from somebody in the EU. My only experience was using the BARC with TBS which was not a bad idea to convert the stock tank and RX 18 to something good. But this board is amazing and again want to thank all involved in creating it. Literally everything in terms of how to use is spelled out clearly and in the end the main thing.. it is FUN. I am spoiled using this board..so fingers crossed you guys will get it back in production!
