I have done a similar thing to your H/L plug with the IR bulbs in my battler tanks, except I used the little red JST battery connectors.
Keep the posts coming, as I said I'm loving watching this build progress

, yep a riveting i will go,Forgot a couple of pic's trying to get all the cables, motors and assortments out of the interior in one go with out pulling anything apart. Also with the HL connectors they fit the LED's legs by just pushing on and so easy to change bulbs later if needed.

I don't envy you that riveting job, but boy at the end of it this will be one stunning model.
Brilliant

i started on the underside with the multiple pin lines for trial and error installing them, also found out i couldnt really use less pins and spread them out a bit as it didn't look quiet right ::) ::) so 1400 plus rivets here i come ;D

have installed all the electronics and cables now, using the new ASP board from RCTA, in discussion with Kevin have even managed to get an A7 sound set. the ASP is a bit like the old El Mods with a main board and a daughter board that plugs in on top and it has all the sounds etc...
very simple to use especially with the ASP template on the TX. so it does all i hoped for 2 mg sounds (50 and 30 Cal) which has a slower rate of fire like the old mg's would have had, running 3 mg's on ea sound. have set up the recoil with a servo (pics later) installed 2 sets of Mato speakers has the engine sound from 1 and the guns from the other set, was a bit quiet so i added an other speaker which has a 20 watt amp (on the board) so it has plenty of volume (pics later). the board sits on a sheet of styrene that can be removed, the batt cables run under the sheet, will also have a batt recharge plug.
cheers
