And also Jim,

Nice new radio! I think it would probably confuse me even more than the QX7! And STOP shooting all the trout! Save some for seed! I'm sure the IL DNR would take a dim view of it. Love the "No Trespassing" sign in the background, that won't stop a determined Panzer Commander! Vorwarts!!!

Eric.

Hell yes! Tigers take no prisoners. One shot into the creek and enough fish will float to the surface to feed a good portion of the 502nd. And if you’re sitting on German 88, a No Trespassing sign looses all it’s meaning. :haha:

Made my day, Jim. :clap: Today, I reached my biblical quotient of years, and had a few friends over for blether, and good single malt. Try watching your tank movie to this simply stunning piece of music by Martynov, (Theme from the amazing Italian film- 'The Great Beauty', 2016): Anyone in their 'golden years' should rent, or buy, this film.. Incidentally, your tiger is becoming something of a celebrity . :D
Long may it continue :thumbup:

Nice to see someone's tank outside in nature being used and enjoyed. But honestly seeing that water makes me nervous lol. Truly a nice spot to relax. I picked up a Elmod board about a year ago and played around briefly with trying to add sounds and control with a Flyski transmitter. Neat concept yet never quite got the hang of it so back into the parts bin it went.

Thanks for watching my fun little video! I spend a lot of time to add the best details that my skills allow and try to use the most awesome electronics that I can and try to paint it as realistically as possible according to my ability.
But it certainly is not a shelf queen in any way. I drive the living hell out of it on almost a daily basis. Actually I git a bit rough with it on rocks sometimes just to push her limits and so far no parts have been lost or broken. As soon as I got home I removed the upper hull and checked for moisture but found none. I left the top off for a while that evening just to ensure any hidden moisture could evaporate. Still runs like a Swiss watch! :thumbup:
I hate to hear that you aren't utilizing your Elmod board. What version is it? I would buy it from you if the price is right.

It's a Elmod Fusion Pro with a Bluetooth adapter and Tamiya apple base conversion.
