Got some of the sheet metal done this week. Tank hull weighs about 100 pounds, as shown. This thing moves, it can easily spin the tracks on a fast start!!!! It tears the heck out of the lawn when you do a full skid turn. It has 12 amp hour batteries in it right now and I ran it hard for 45 minutes - no sign of run down batteries. Installed a 30 amp circuit breaker for on/off control and circuit protection - works good - no trips. You can run it up the trunk of a tree until its higher than 45 degrees!!!
I'll start on the turret this week.
