Thinking about ordering Opel Blitz

Post by Wolverine Tanker »

I have been wanting an Asiatam Opel Blitz for awhile but it seems to be out of stock everywhere except the Asistam site out of Germany. Has anyone ordered from them and how do they pack it cause I live in the U.S.

I think I get it but It says that it needs the power and electrics to build. Does it come with the servo?

If it says without electronics it's probably without a servo but that's easy to source here in the US. I'm sure someone on the forum has built one and can better direct you.

It's quite a deal they are offering for fathers day about €50.00 off for the blitz.

Yeah that's why I did a double take on it. I saw one on Utube that had a smoker unit in it and a sound card I think from RC electronics. I've always wanted one to accompany my Tiger1 in support.

I fitted a IBU2 base to one last year for a customer.

Set it up as a repair vehicle, so he could drive up to his tanks and repair battle damage.

If you search around there is a replacement track upgrade kit available for the Blitz.

Well I put the money down on the Blitz. It was cheaper than posted. They have a sale for 255. euros, I got mine for 210. So I got the servo and an accessory kit for a grand total of 256.72 euros. That includes shipping. What a deal!!!!! I can't wait until it comes. ;D :D
