hey Ply/everyone,
I don't have my tank yet, but i think my g/f is ordering me a pair for my b-day
!!!
anyway, i thought about what you said having the turret able to turn. staring at the pic of the insides, and i may definitely be wrong about this, but it looks like between the 2 gearboxes there's an indentation about the size of a bit motor, with the bell end facing the rear of the tank and the shaft facing forward. there's a small bump with a hole in it and that looks like it would connect to that small hole up by the turret. it would be possible to make the turret turn by somehow getting the gears in the right position and the right type of gears. the other thing i'd have to wonder is if the controller could do another set of input instructions.
anyway, just my .02
