1/6 scale R/C tanks

Post by ddskipper »

1/6 R/C FOA Tiger 1 is working great and am almost done with my 1/6 scale FOA Tiger 2. Both use my own scratch built true torsion bar suspension which works well to support the 300 lbs of weight that these weigh in at. Tiger 2 has Panzer Lied song, commander talking in german, headlight and formation lights, drivers head turning in direction of movment, servo activated bow machine gun, radiator fans, smoke units for exhaust, Benedini sound system. Looking at possibly next a 1/6 FOA Jagtiger next. Hope 2022 is better for getting them out at hobby tank events.

Fantastic to have you post after so long as a member.
Your tank garage seems to be very lively and plans for more excitement when you can!
Sure would like to have a picture or several of your projects.
