So this month we have. The T33-85.

Well. It’s a t34. We have all seen one we all know what it is. The photos can say the rest

I know that some of you are fond of photos of the inside. So there’s one in there somewhere

It’s not on fire by the way it’s just running on it’s new 11.1 battery

This is my VW kafer, the basis of the build is a 1/16 revell static kit which I then modified with wpl parts to convert to rc.

Built, painted and pictures by me,

Cheers, Lee.

Hi,

here i want to show an T34 calliope.
I get this one as an not finished model with an false chassi, it was build on the tamiya HVSS and coverd that it looks like the VVSS gear, but that was not good. Also there was missing a lot of detais on the model, storrage box and so on.
How build the start i don´t know exactly, i get it from Denmark.

So i get an mato metal chassi and rebuild it, give em detais, color and some good´s and baggage.
It works with an Tamiya M4 DMD/MF.
Turret turns and lifting/lowering the gun/launchers.
The buildingrepert is befor i join this forum, so only in hlpf.

Thats the T34 now:
