Thanks Neil.
I will not apply for designation for this one. The Vickers is in scale 1:8
and I think well below 60 cms long. and it is built for this purpose - fit
in a suitcase. And I do not even dare to compare my tanks with George's
work!
To your last query, 3 of my large Ni CAD batteries died late last year, and
they cost 180 euros ! If I have to start a battle and have two tanks
running, I have to spend 180 euros cash one shot deal amidst the financial
crisis and my debts, and I preferred to spend my money to other things last
winter. -I hope I won;t be fired from my teaching job due to the crisis!-
Also building the latest tank keeps me busy for months and months. Worst is
they owe me tons of money from at least 5 contracts here and there. Once I
have them, I might try 123 type batteries for replacements and they can be
charged on my Turnigy charger for LIPO, PLIFE and 123.
BY the way, I recommend the timing belts for half tracks or other short
configurations. The motors barely get even slightly warm with these light
tracks. The disk plates are eventually obsolete. The closely spaced wheels
do not allow the track to derail.
