Attach
the turret rotation motor to the motor mount using four M3*16 cap
head screws. A recommended upgrade is to use M3 washers and M3 nylon
insert nuts. Install the gear assembly on the motor shaft, leaving
a space of about 1mm from the motor mount. |

The
turret rotation motor mount (shown here w/o motor) is secured to underside
of the hull roof with two M4 * 50 hex head bolts. Replacing these
with M4 countersink screws will give a cleaner look on the outside
of the hull roof. Using M4 nylon insert nuts can't hurt either. Behind
the mount is Vince's custom roof support. |
 |
To
give more space for larger batteries, I installed a 1" aluminum
bar stock in place of the bulkhead CE0131. Some owners have also installed
Vince's rear hull roof support here. |

The
turret stud is attached to the hull floor with a M6 * 16 cap head
bolt. This is another opportunity for a countersink screw replacement
to give a smooth hull bottom. |

The
standard battery tray is made for two YB14L batteries, not included
with OP1. Whatever batteries you select, I would recommend any that
are sealed. Vented batteries can cause corrosion problems inside the
tank. |
|
I
drilled two extra holes for mounting my custom battery tray, using
the standard tray as a template. Custom 1" x 1/2" delrin
standoffs were made and tapped for M4 countersink screws to mount
the tray to the floor and clear the torsion bars. |
