1st R/C Tank - Tamiya King Tiget - full option

Post by whitewolf »

Hi guys,
After building static models for 30+ years I finally decided to have a go at an R/C Tank and decided on the Tamiya full option KT. Read a few things about the kit and opted to replace the kit tracks with metal tracks. I understand a few additions are needed and got a gearbox support/ strengthener plus drive axle supports with bearings plus schumo and Henntec rear idler tensioner. I'm not an engineer, and not entirely sure how the Henntec unit actually tightens up? I aim to start assembly shortly after gathering a few other bits and pieces. I would welcome any input/advice on this kit from the experienced folk on here in order to deal with any potential issues in advance ?Many thanks
