Late Jagdtiger

Post by jhamm »

Hi,
currently I am building a late Jagdtiger.
Specification:
- Parts for Hull from http://www.ludwigs-hobby-seite.de/
- Transmissions are partially from Modellspiegel combined with 21.5T Turnigy Sensored Brushless Motors and TORO TS-50 ESC
- Sprocket and Idlerwheel from Tamiya
- Torro Metal Roadwheels Set modiefied with double Ball-baering
- Metal Tracks from Impact

For the attentive observer:
The base plate is glued in the wrong direction! 8O
That whould be a real fun to get everything apart an clean up and re-glue..... :wtf:
I have decided to close the holes later and to make new ones in the right place.

Image

For tests and adjustment with Tamiya Roadwheels:

The Transmission Unit, early Version with Brushed Motors:

After first Rollout:
