I was curious if anybody out there can help me identify this turret controller. My first guess is that it’s for a Consolidated Tail Turret used on B-24’s. The data plate reads: “Clarke Aero Hydraulics Pasadena, CA” Model 0400Y8.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for the help Mike!
Actually the controller is not mine…it belongs to a guy in Alaska who asked me to help him identify what type of turret it went to. I agree it’s a nice piece but I’m trying to concentrate on my ball turret project so I have no plans of acquiring it. I suggested that he put it up on Barnstormers.com or ebay to see what he gets for it.
Thanks again!

Hi John,
Nice find!
I’m also guessing that it’s from a Consolidated tail turret.
