nice vid! the tank doesn't seem to lack in "get-up-and-go" dept any. runs rather nicely. now when you speak of changing from white metal to Zinc is that for strength only or something else? chris In a message dated 9/5/2014 5:58:37 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Hello fellow tankers! I just posted a video of our conversion of the Dragon M4A3 Sherman with RC Combat capabilities. http://youtu.be/LbPgO9rWyFI I hope you don't mind the Glenn Miller song in the background, or the French accent.... The song should be credited to Oberst Johanns of this very group! I will take full responsibility for the accent I'm not fully happy with the tank upgrade yet. The tensioning of the track is really tricky. Full U-turn on grass is still difficult, but we are improving the end-connectors to Zinc Allow rather than White Metal (shown on Video), and we are increasing the teeth length on the end-connectors by increasing the return roller diameter. That baby flies at 4.3 mph (6.9 km/hr) which is actually scale accurate! Please note that I have 4 Lipo batteries in it (thanks to the advice of Mr. Montgomery, of this very group again) Please let me know what you think!
