Hi tankers!
I want to show You one of my projects - Abrams.
I want to build SEP TUSK version with NATO camo scheme.
I bought Mato metal road wheels and metal tracks with rubber pads. I will use for this project HL Upper Hull and Turret. Now Im waiting for metal lower hull and TUSK side armor.
Also I decided to use brushless gimbal stabilization because brushed one (Clark, Tamiya etc) are working so bad - latency, inacurrate etc.
As You can see, it works good. Also I can turn ON/OFF stabilization. The biggest problem is inertia effect when stabilization is OFF. I think this is software problem. If it will be possible, I will try to fix it.

I like it. Is that a metal Reinfoement for the plastic chassis? Or are you going with the metal lower from Ludwig's?
Tanks alot....

In video You see my aluminium reinforcement. But I have problem with making suspension arms (I want torsion bars). So I ordered hull from my friend from Hong Kong

Little update.
First test run with 2s LiPo. Motors are brushless 900kv with 1:30 reduction. Gearbox 3d printed. Open Panzer control board

Finally drilled 4 holes to mount mine plow. It will be controlled via transmitter. I will connect it to internal ESC in OP board.
