Hello
Made a start on building this kit.

Hello Frank,

Looks good! Are those plastic tracks or metal? They look like they may have some weight to them and thus some "sag".

Cheers,
Eric.

Hi Eric
The tracks are metal as are the turret,wheels,barrel,hatches,gearbox

Frank, it has all the makings of a great, and hopefully enjoyable, model. That Taigen metal/alloy hull is one of the best out there.
Are you planning to paint it? If so, I'd suggest removing the rubber tyres from the wheels- which will likely necessitate removing the wheels again, in fact. Generally, it's best to prime and paint the wheels before adding the tyres, and before the final fitting- ditto with the sprockets and idlers. They can be primed and painted in situ, but it's a real pain, and likely to be messy.

Hello
I dont know what I will do with this build yet,I finished the hull and turret, only the upper hull to do,

Hello
I finished the build, but I broke the elbow that hold the drives hatch.

No on the motors, easier, if of course Taigen turntable, if other electronics? see servo direction setting, in the transmitter menu
