Tim From Iowa

Post by MM1_TB »

I am retired,but work part time at a hobby store. I have 2 tanks a HL Tiger1 and a HL Tauch Panzer 3. I just started getting into RC. I have been building 1/35 scale tanks for about 7 years. I am hoping to learn more about RC Tanks so I can upgrade my tanks.

Welcome to the forum Tim, as you are already addicted to model tanks then any warnings about empty wallet and friendly bank managers are probably unnecessary! Enjoy the forum and don't be shy about posting pics of your work - we love to see them. Happy tanking. :thumbup: :wave: :wave: Alwyn

Welcome Tim. I've up scaled my model building as well. I really enjoy 16th, used to hate the tiny, super details required on smaller scales.
