Hi guys
Just a quick introduction of myself. The names Pete , Model maker/engineer for many years now ,you name it and I've built it.
Rc tanks however are fairly new to me although i have built them in the past and have owned a Tamiya sherman since about 2001 ( modified to A3E8 with firing gun,powder charge that is not BB.. ) which has done little other than sit on my workshop bence since.
Recently however I was introduced to the Heng Long tanks by a friend and realising what good value they were promptly bought myself a PZVI F2 which of course I had to modify and it now has full skirts and other mods now turning it into an Ausf H.
Anyway that's how far I've got with this new direction for me and I'm sure I'll add another tank soon( BTW just bought 3 HL Tiger 1's as xmas gifts for 3 of my children who liked the PZVI).
So you never know i may well be upgrading one of these as my next project...
Pete

hi pete welcome to the forum(or commonly called the mad house) you'll have a good time here and get loads of help and advice, if needed, i like the sound of youre sherman, it fires a powder charge?, i think you need to do a write up on how to do it in the hints and tips section, thats something i would love to do on my sherman
regards
Tony
