I will be able to make it to this war, unless something pops up.

here is a close up of the trigger set up. A clothes hanger is connecting the trigger to the tank. There is a tension spring on the AT2k firing pin, because the firing pin will not go all the way back with out it and the hot glue will com off. this can be fixed with using epoxy putty instead of hot glue, and there should be no need for the tension spring, I just don't have epoxy putty at the moment.


I think this answers your questions guys.

Nice job on the mod. How is the turret seal? Did you put a different spring in there or do anything to improve it over the stock firefly turret seal?

the turret seal is pretty good, I put in a stronger spring that I found in a misc spring pack.

Is it really necessary to have the spring pulling on the pin so much that you need something else to counteract it?



This is my question as well. That part doesn't make any sense. Why do you have a spring pulling back on the tank pin at all? What you really need is to fabricate an additional piece of plastic or metal which glues or screws to the trigger, and then comes up to a pint and attaches to the pin. You could us the hanger rod, since you have it, and make sort of inverted "V" shape, where the vertex of the angle folds around the pin, and each of the ends comes down to the trigger. I recommend drilling small holes in the front and back points of the trigger body and inserting the rod, then gluing them down. Hot glue may work, but epoxy (liquid, not putty) or something else would be better.

A hole is drilled through the trigger, and the close hanger is going through it. that was all I could answer that I actually understood.
