Nope.
1:16 was my scale. Until 'Konan' came into my life... an Armortek 1:6 Tiger 1!
... Now followed by a Panther G, 'Gunther'!

I'm a happy man. 8)

I have the resin kit made by Juckenburg. Now that he's out of business is that kit even available anymore? Is there a market for people who want an RC Maus? Is the resin kit even a possibility to make into RC?

I’d love a Maus, I keep dropping hints to Alwyn to do a scratch/3D print version, but he’s thoroughly British lol

Here is the video of it running. Juckenburg RC'ed. The suspension and wheels are a little fragile but it does run quite well.

Tracks are resin? Or are they cheating and using something like a kingtiger tracks and sprocket?
