RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

The title says it all. It's on weekend after next so not much warning but its model, both static and RC, all types incl tanks and the museum is opening up some of the normally unseen items.

That's all l've been able to find out so far. Anyone know any more, such as can we bring our tanks, hours, prices??

You should find what you need to know here.

It looks like invitation only for the rc models, but you could always enquire form the Tank Museum.

Thanks, obvious place to look!

I see Haya has a stand but l don't see any RC Tank Warfare group. Why is that? It's such a shame that this site is nothing more than a talk shop when we could be doing so much more together, promoting our hobby.

2920! GD I'm amazing if I last until then...

Sorted!

There was a group, whose name currently escapes me, who had pretty much sewn up all the Miltary Shows in the south west. They used to hold regular meetings at the Tank Museum. As a generality, they mainly showed 1/6 scale tanks. As a consequence, I guess people were put off.

EDIT: After a bit of reearch, I have found them - Southern Armoured Group. From their Facebook page, they still have a regular meeting there.

What people were put off? Isn't it up to us to get our act together and be proactive about getting RCTW groups at shows? It would be great fun and also be a good social event for us. l'm sure that, no matter where in the UK (or indeed elsewhere) the shows are held, there must be a number of us close enough to attend and represent us.

Is there anyone else here that would like to do this or is it just me?

I was debating whether to visit this show or not. As it happens work commitments decided for me

It's my birthday on the Saturday and l'm hosting but if l survive then Sunday is a possible. While there l can make enquiries regarding next year and any other events this summer.

Before l do anything though, am l treading on anyone elses toes? Does RCTW have an events organiser or similar? Maybe someone on the staff could answer that please.

I am going on the Saturday it should be a good day out. I agree when it comes to getting out there and promoting the hobby. I also do flight simulation and we have a very active group in the southwest we attend the flightsim show at Cosford every year as a group with a stand and it works well..
