Hello and welcome Phil. its good to hear another Brit starting a tank build with battling in mind . You may not be aware but a two day battle event "war in the woods II" occurred weekend just gone , only 30 miles north of your location in Surrey. you would have been made very welcome to attend any or all of it, with a tank or not. Stay tuned for more UK battles happening this summer, will either be Essex or Manchester or both , or where every will have us.
You sound like you have ample technical know how for this project but if i can help in any way please feel free to ask. Take the time to read about the KOR in the "teams" section , and if you wish your name to be added just ask.
