1/6 21st centuary stuart tank tracks coming off

Post by James007 »

I'm new to the board and new to 1/6 scale tanks. I have only just brought a stuart 1/6 tank and I love it. I also have a heng long tiger that I was using before it, and had many problems with the tracks coming off. But I have also have had a problem with the tracks coming off on the stuart tank too and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas why its happening or how I can prevent it from happening.
Thanks

Hey, you have two solutions, remove some track links to shorten them (this may lead to them being too tight) or ideally fit a track tensioner. Not sure if the Stuart comes with one but for the Tiger it will involve a little bit of DIY.
