I'll stick with trying to "balance" mine, and purposely making it go sideways

no Joe, this was already built up

nope not a tamiya one (wish it was though) it's a heng long tiger 1, but with the full option kit added (nearly everything is metal) hence the weight.

and it's set me back so far around £300 odd

yeah i bet the kit was fun making

and yes i've taken it right off road, there's loads of scratches everywhere underneath and i'm now working on making it waterproof

and here's the tiger again, and my new m26 pershing, which will be modified soon

[joe_m]

very good idea

how you going to go about waterproofing it ....?

[alexcrosse]

thats only 10% of what a tamiya one would cost!

lovely tank you got there though mate, really like it!!

well i was going to bring the switched and battery into the tank it'self and body fill the slots underneath and seal off the battery compartment permenantley.
then open the tank up and make two plastic L shaped strips and seal them over the suspension arms

thats only 10% of what a tamiya one would cost!

lovely tank you got there though mate, really like it!!

suppose so, they are a little bit over priced, but they are great when you see them in the flesh

cheers Alex
