Description
Click here for pure stock version. Note that the video features the pure stock version instead of this craft.

Compared with the pure stock version
- DLC servo turret mount instead of stock bearing, one single craft instead of two.
- Driving and turret rotating at the same time, no craft-switching required
- No auto-lock on functionality, requires manual aiming which is not always accurate. (Auto aiming with DLC servo is possible, but pretty weird to use, so I didn’t include it in this craft)
- Part count dropped from 347 to 323 thanks to replacement of stock bearing mechanism

Other than these they are identical.

Descriptions
Due to stock part limitations that I don’t know how to get around, my Panzer II Ausf.L Luchs replica ended up as a fictional Luft-46 style vehicle - the Raketenspähpanzer Luchs (missile-armed scout tank Lynx) . Equipped with 5 cm main gun, X-7 Rotkäppchen anti-tank guided missile and infrared night vision device, this nimble light tank can not only scout, but also cause some serious headache to stronger enemy.

However, the in-game craft can’t achieve such performance. It’s mainly built for the look.

User Manual
- Stage to turn on power.
- J/L to rotate turret.
- Stage again to fire missile.
- Abort to fire gun (throttle >0).

Wish you enjoy and happy PANZER VOR!

The Luchs existed irl, it just wasn't as known as the Panzer IV or VI Tiger or Panther or Maus or some other german contraptions
