Default Has anyone tried the TK22 for the M1 Abrams?

Looking for someone that has a TK22 in an Abrams to find out how they like it, how the sounds are, etc. I have a TK22 in my Bulldog and it drives just great, so it might be an economical way to get the right sounds for the Abrams, too.

The TBS is going to be the hbest sound card for the abrams hands down., Because the turbine does not rev up and down like a conventional diesel or gas engine. it is full on or full off period.

Both the tk60 and the TBS are fine units, but they don't exactly meet the economical requirement. The tk22 in the video above sounded like it would do the job for me. Now all I have to do is get Nathan to send me one, and I think about $100 will accomplish that quite nicely.

sounds like a good plan my friend, a tk60 , even With my friendly price and free shipping would set you bak a little more than the tk22.

It's not the price of the tk60, it's the computer part. I won't buy any board that I have to connect to a computer before I can use it. My hobby is RC Tanks, not rc computers. The tk22 and the IBU2 do everything I need them to do. Of course, almost all my tanks are airsoft and that makes a big difference.

Thank you very much for all the help guys, as usual, you have answered my questions and I now know what to do.

Just to make clear. TK60 don't need any pc connection. IT CAN yes , but no need to . Only thing you need to , again if you want to, is , say you swopp to DKLM gearboxes, use the sony remote to set mixer mode on/off. Ore you want to use it in a tamiya, set recoil settings, again with the remote , and etc .

It would be nice to see a side by side comparison of the tk60 and the tk22. The 22 is a great space saver, but motor control isn't the greatest.
