Hi,
If you got the compleat set for £200 that's a very good deal well done :thumbup:. Just take your time with it and do a lot of dry runs before you commit to guleing anything. Paint as you build the kit. If you need any advice PM me and I will try to help you out. Brian...

I done a build of this last year it takes a while I am going to do some more weathering on it as I think it needs a bit more.

In my opinion it would take a lot of work to turn this into a RC tank Panzerhun I think you could stick gear boxes in easy enough but the problem would be the suspension is not great then you would have to change the barel etc then try and fit turret rotation etc it would be a lot easier buying a second hand Tamiya or upgrading a Heng Long.
