Step into the ring KV1
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
Plans for this one are some schumo upgrades, an idler support bar and other bits.
Not sure on a colour scheme yet but not in any rush.

Tell us more about this reinforcing bar, is it a chassis brace?Ad Lav wrote:Not slot happened recently, been waiting for stuff to arrive, then suddenly realised I didn't pay for the up armoured kit hence why it never turned up lol
Reinforcing bar turned up from mitosal.
Decided on a specific KV1 - up armoured panels and tri tone camouflage.
Thanks Ad Lav, I've a few Tamiya tanks, all of which have some stiffing devices attached. Mostly in the gear box area and idler area.Ad Lav wrote:The reinforcing bar/chassis brace (photo to follow) is an Impact item from Mitosal. Some KV owners have had chassis twist due to lack of a reinforcing bar where the idlers are. Simple and cheap part made by a reputable company for the Tamiya kit.
Should stiffen the front as the KV is rear sprocket driven.
