I would not classify this as a "bad experience". Please remember that the Hetzer is driven very hard by a crazy man. She must be steered to aim her gun. In my opinion, Talons are still the most cost effective solution for our tanks. I simply wanted people to know that they are not indestructible. I read some more details about the improved Talon SR. I believe that the new "Synchronous Sign Magnitude Rectification" in the SR should be more robust for sudden motor reversal than the old "Locked Antiphase Rectification" in the Talons that I fried. We shall see if the Hetzer fries Talon SRs in future battles. Exponential throttle response (versus linear) would also help this sudden reversal problem. Perhaps someday Cross the Road Electronics with introduce a Talon SR with an exponential throttle option. Joe -- -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
