gun stabilizer module for models with Tamiya DMD T-07
The module has been specifically designed to incooperate the Tamiya DMD
T-07's for Leopard 2A6 model. The module stabilizes the horizontal and
the vertical movement of the gun. This is acccomplish by using modern
gyro- and inertialsensor technology.
The module can be operated so that there is no further RC channel needed.
This allows 4 channel transmitters to (with the necessary for the DMD
mechanical trimmers) can be used are used. Alternatively, one chanel can
be used to activate the stabilization, the horizontal and vertical sensitivity
via transmitter. Then up to three additional channels are needed.
