Looks great, what did you use for the turret net?

Restore my Pantiger back to working condition and will run it offroad tomorrow. I notice the tracks of your Pantiger are very tight. Do they create stress on the idlers?

Here is mine

Hi
Not sure if they are tight, the track has just enough sag to lightly touch the middle idler at rest. Any way after shimming the rear idler out slightly I have never had any trouble with the tracks (that's just jinxed it) LoL

I was testing my tank off road when a "rock" got stuck in the track and disabled it. Sh*t!
