Bitza Tiger 1 build

The barrel is just plonked in there, I haven't hooked up the servo inside yet.

I have the decals for the fire extinguisher which I will bring over

They will probably look better than the rest of the tank!

Abracadabra....one recoil installed.

Test run with a 2.4ghz RX18 to check that the new wiring loom all works. Had to rebuild the steel gearboxes that had seen better days!

Just needs the sensors in the cupola, an IR emitter, and a drive board, and it's good to go.

Darth Stilton says it will need some weathering once the decals are on!

Very nice, now a dogs dinner fit for a royal Corgi!

I will leave it in the garden, it will save me buying any pigment

When you get the board don't forget the 1 x 5 pin and 2 x 2 pin plugs!

Great work on the recoil mounts, that printer is like imagination in 3D !
Good on you for making it look easy

I am now kicking myself, I spent ages mixing paint to get that base colour to match the colour in the pics, there I am ferreting about in my supply of paint, I pick up a bottle and what is on it? German Cam Beige, still unopened...I have no idea when I bought that, I had totally forgotten that it was in there.

Decals applied!






Darth Cambozola approves.

Some weathering and it will be ready for your electrical wizardry. I think this Tiger is heading to my youngest son.
