So much progress done and bug squashing with FCM F1 Hull no.001.
Announcing that No.001 will be DEACTIVATED and have its internals replaced with static fixtures. Painted and placed in a display case.
Ive learned quite a lot from the extensive tests done for the running gear of this tank.
Hull No.002 will be constructed with issues learned from Hull No.001, once expendable printing stock is acquired.

Great built report, you always learn more from mistakes made. The next version will be winner.

once the FCM is proven to be good in handling and almost no track throws, files will be commercializedronnie42 wrote:Great built report, you always learn more from mistakes made. The next version will be winner.

I don’t know enough about french tanks to comment but watching with interest
It’s your tank it’s what you make it

french vehicles are quite obscure to a point where its a living novel fiction where its like the 1920's future military fictionExhibitedbrute wrote:I don’t know enough about french tanks to comment but watching with interest
The FCM F1 was one in a line of super heavy tanks that made to wooden mockup

Re: Gig's 1:16 FCM F1
hull No.002's improvements over No.001.
hopefully this will eliminate the chassis flex and track throws due to the flex
