4. Eto ati fifi sori
Careful installation is crucial for the proper functioning of the slip ring. This component integrates with your RC tank's TK16 main board to manage various turret functions.
- Igbaradi: Ensure your RC tank is powered off and disconnected from any power source before beginning installation.
- Ṣe idanimọ Awọn eroja: Familiarize yourself with the slip ring assembly, including the central rotating slip ring unit and the two connector circuit boards. One board typically connects to the TK16 main board, and the other to the turret's internal components.
- Refer to Wiring Diagram: The provided wiring diagram (Figure 2) is essential for correct connections. Although the diagram contains Chinese labels, the visual layout of connections is critical. Match the connectors from the slip ring assembly to the corresponding ports on your TK16 main board and turret components.
- Connect Turret Components: The 18-pin connector board (Figure 3) features labeled ports for various turret functions. Connect your turret's main gun light, machine gun lights (main and coaxial), laser light, and motors for extension, pitch/elevation, and rotation to these ports. Ensure 5V power connections are correctly made.
- Integrate Slip Ring: Mount the slip ring unit within the turret's rotation mechanism, ensuring it can rotate freely without obstruction. The wires from the slip ring should pass through the center of rotation.
- Awọn isopọ to ni aabo: Double-check all connections for tightness and correct polarity. Loose connections can lead to intermittent operation or damage.


5. Isẹ
Once correctly installed, the 18-Unit Slip Ring allows your RC tank's turret to achieve continuous 360-degree rotation. This eliminates the issue of tangled wires that often occurs with traditional wiring setups, providing smoother and more reliable turret movement. All functions connected through the slip ring (lights, motors, etc.) will operate normally regardless of the turret's rotational position.
6. Itọju
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your slip ring:
- Jeki mimọ: Periodically inspect the slip ring and its connections for dust, debris, or foreign objects. Clean gently with a soft, dry brush if necessary.
- Yago fun ipa: Do not apply excessive force to the slip ring or its wiring during handling or operation.
- Ṣayẹwo Awọn isopọ: Regularly check that all wire connections remain secure and free from corrosion.
- Ibi ipamọ: When not in use for extended periods, store the RC tank in a clean, dry environment away from extreme temperatures.
7. Laasigbotitusita
If you encounter issues with your slip ring, consider the following:
- Turret Not Rotating / Intermittent Rotation:
- Verify all power connections to the TK16 main board and the slip ring assembly are secure.
- Check the motor connections for the turret rotation.
- Inspect the slip ring wires for any damage or breaks.
- Ensure the slip ring unit is not obstructed and can rotate freely.
- Lights/Other Functions Not Working:
- Confirm the specific function's wiring to the 18-pin connector board is correct and secure.
- Check for proper 5V power supply to the connector board.
- Ensure the component itself (e.g., LED light) is functional.
8. Awọn imọran olumulo
- Always take photos of your existing wiring before disassembly to aid in reassembly or troubleshooting.
- Use appropriate tools for connecting and disconnecting wires to avoid damaging pins or connectors.
- If you are unsure about any step, seek assistance from experienced RC modelers or contact the seller for guidance.
