Mike, As a member of STC (why did I have to pay a $200 initiation fee?), I don't remember being sworn to secrecy. However, my silence can be bought. You better act quickly though, because I don't know how much longer I can keep it in. I remember the model had a 3 in its name. Oops! I'm starting to slip already. My plain-Jane Pz38(t) has received a face lift with several details like machine guns, driver ports, muffler, rivets, hinged magazine loader and camo paint job. Pictures soon, but the tank and I are on a recruiting mission this weekend with two potential tankers at the Sanford, FL RC warship battle. Bill

Only members of STC area actually know what tank it is and are sworn to secrecy until a TBD public announcement date. For the record, M3 has never shied away from technical challenges. Indeed, M3 has led the way within the model warship engineering world utilizing LiFEPo4 batteries, brushless motor systems, and extreme rapid firing cannon technologies to improve warship performance and reliability. It is only natural to apply the knowledge in a new field of endeavor. With experience building two R/C Tank combat assets under its belt, M3 plans on pushing the envelope with "Project MinX" utilizing proven technologies in unconventional ways. Off the record, this little tankette has me excited so much that I may end up battling it more than the Strv. Heh. So what do you need to do on the tank Aaron?

I would also assume a small tankette would do best without suspension, unless you like the technical challenges. My project is to get my once running tank operational again.
