Hi, My name is Dickson in Hong Kong. I have four Tamiya RC tanks (Tiger1, M26 Pershing, M4 Sherman and a Leopard2a6). Three of them are over 20 years old. I decide to get M1A2 coming soon. I have
finished two conversion projects recently. ( Tiger1 from early production to mid production the M4 105 howitzer to M4a3e8). On the other side Leopard2a6 to A7 plus is on going and find a recoil action problem. I hope some experienced persons can lend me a hand.

Welcome! from a long way away in the northern US. Your introduction shows that you know what you are doing, and I am sure you will receive all kinds of suggestions here on RCTW.
I imagine huge hobby stores in Hong Kong with dazzling displays of all kinds of models, RC models, and so much more. Am I correct?

Herr Dr. Professor, you are right. There are many model shops in Hong Kong.

Welcome to the forum DTKK :wave:

Pictures of your conversions would be very welcome :thumbup:

Enjoy the forum, and hopefully someone Tamiya knowledgeable will be along to help you with your recoil problem.

Welcome to the forum. I built a 2A 7+ from a Taigen model. I used a Clark recoil system.
