Hi Kevin, in the near future a SDKFZ 222 is comming
My plan is to install a brushless ESC on it, and a Dasmikro (benedini clone) as sound board.
And doe to I need some IR combat system, maybe a mako for IR combat. Do you think it could be compatible in any way?
What would be the price?

Thanks!

Well, after taking a closer look to Mako, it seems it wont be possible to be used in my mix...

But it would be great if you desing some kind of standard rc protocol battle unit. I think it will sell well, and a lot o people will include it in many vehicles, like the new heng long/wpl trucks.

EDIT: Now I know it is fully compatible and can be used as a stand alone. Great news!
