atom3624 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I just get the impression that impressive size 'though it is, they seem to be charging quite a premium for their parts for your tank!! There is a lot of engineering involved, admittedly, and not every man and his dog is buying them, so I understand they have to cover costs ... Quaint it is that collar!! Al.

johninderby Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 There are lots of upgrade parts you can get for your 1:6 tank and as you say it's a tiny market so you pay ££££ for it. https://www.msuk-forum.co.uk/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=17590 John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Not RC related in anyway, shape or form, however, a chap with a very large truck brought this bad boy today.... ......He also helped get it to that position, because an early return to the yard would have meant a 7.30pm finish for him....

johninderby Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 A big oil tank for storing your boiling oil in then? Sorry couln't resist but it is a LARGE water feature though. John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 finally got a La Trax Alias. Wanted one for a while but never really had the funds. This one is in great condition. It needs a bearing and a Transmitter and I paid..... £4.50.... also got my motor mount for my Sport 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Noj Posted March 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) A lovely bloke called Paul rang and asked if I was prepared to take a delivery tonight instead of tomorrow..... Naturally, I said yes: Came with the pneumatic lift and these loading ramps too Mark 1, nowhere near as detailed as John's Armortek but then it didn't cost anywhere near as much.....And all inaccuracies and missing detail will be rectified over time. First job tonight is to redress one crewman in actual Panzer gear and equip with the correct side arm..... Will be running tomorrow, full sound and smoke, gun with recoil.....A blank firer is a future mod I would like to make.... An RC dream realised.

Oh How Original Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 That looks great @Noj - how big is it? A bit hard to tell from the pictures, but I'm guessing it's a decent size! From which company does it hail also? Really hope a thread is started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 1/6th, 54" long (to barrel tip), 24" wide, two person to lift it! Mark 1 Tanks, eBay purchase, so a relative steal for the money (not saying exactly how much). Metal wheels and tracks.... I shall be starting a thread....Like John's build, this will be on-going in terms of mods and detail addition, unlike John's, she'll be running tomorrow (unless it pours down) Having been immersed in the world of 1/6th some years back, the costs involved are totally acceptable and fortunately, figures and related parts are here in abundance. Next thing is to sell the 1/6th Tiger plastic kit I bought 15 years ago as the room the box takes up is urgently required: I have one month of keeping it in the house before our lass turfs it out! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I just wasn't quite sure on scale, with you mentioning it's not the same as Johns. Great looking tank though, quite the monster in size really! Not many things can dwarf a Losi 5ive lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johninderby Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 A proper sized tank. Has potential to add as much detail as your wallet can take. John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
