well here it is, the conversion of my Tiger I into the SturmTiger, fitted with a 3 round auto-loaded gun.

It also has fully working RC drivetrain, gun elevation, 2 speed transmission, detailed engine, and working torsion-bar suspension

I also re-shaped parts of the hull to improve the accuracy of details.

here is the firing mechanism

It's a modified version of Kelkschiz's version.

it achieves ranges of 25-30 ft with 1x3 technic beams

Really really nit-picky, but shouldn't the upper glacis (hope with the amount of tanks you've built you know what this means) be slightly flatter and a tad deeper? or is that just the photo angle? otherwise excellent model. The detail on the engine deck especially is very nice

Yeah but there was some contact problems with the firing mechanism , so it's not as steep.

Ah right that makes sense, bearing in mind the firing mechanism is the centre of the model

Shooting nicely and fits in tank-destroyer hull space. It could almost fit in Maus turret
