As you know the Sherman MU has no recoil function nor pins. Hence this mod will not work as there is nowhere on the unit to plug in.
Another customer has just asked the same thing and he is getting the MAKO4 Tamiya. Which will not only give him recoil but add a huge range of extra features such as:
Battle Unit identification
Real time monitoring of Battle stats
Multi-brand IR compatibility
Machine gun IR
2 shot Kill IR
and yes it will leave all the regular Tamiya functions unchanged.
Alternatively, if you have a programmable radio like the 9X you can program a recoil function on a spare channel and simply plug your servo into that channel. A recoil servo program is setup by default to CH7 on many of the tankER9X templates.
If your radio is NOT programmable then a different mod to SIRVOE is needed so as it is triggered of your Gun channel (CH3). Then you simply use a Y- connector CH3 out on your receiver with one end to the MU and the outer end to the recoil servo.
Here is MAKO4 Tamiya again
Cheers
