Hi Paul, those wheels themselves do look a lot better than the P111 wheels.
It's just a shame they are so small.
I think id still have a go at casting some new centres for those P111 wheels..
All the best

Re: M2A1 Bradley IFV
Hey Paul,
What about getting one of these static Unimax ones and re propose the road wheels and possibly sprockets/idlers ?

Re: M2A1 Bradley IFV
Hi Paul, sorry if i rocked the boat. I was not aware of ant of the size / fit issues youve been experiencing, but now i can see that your method looks damned good and should give reliable running.
I really fancy getting one of these myself.
Cheers

Re: M2A1 Bradley IFV
Paul, thankfully mine has, its not been converted to r/c so is a blank canvas, I am toying with the idea of using the original tub rather than a panzer111, obviously it will need to have suspension fitted as well as a load of other things that will need to be sorted, biggest problem will be installing the gear boxes, already I can see it will need short shaft gearboxes with high/low motors, so lots to ponder.
That's a real bummer about the metal Bradley tracks, I was ready to pull the trigger on a pair from AFV, will now hold back.
By the way, yours looks stunning, mine is a tri colour NATO camo.

Paul,
The Camo uniforms look real enough to unbutton and swap out. Excellent work!

Re: M2A1 Bradley IFV
Paul, as always top work, is that the Bradley finally done now?
I forgot to mention I have also just acquired a 1/18 military Hummer.
