I got this Leopard for about $80 a few days ago - the owner wanted to get rid of it because he had no time for it.
So far, it runs decently - and I think the plastic gearbox makes a HUGE difference offroad compared to the T90 I have. It's also much, much lighter due to the lack of any metal parts.
Like I said before, the tank is completely stock - no metal parts whatsoever. The tracks like coming off the sprocket wheels when I drive it offroad, and make a hard or soft turn on resistant terrain.
I intend to use this tank to make as an experiment tank, so I can make upgrades to the T90 I'm currently using. Any parts I buy, or changes I implement will be tried on this one, and once tested - will be put into the T90. Call it training myself if you want.
I'm thinking of tightening the tracks slightly so they don't come off the sprocket wheels when I turn, and see if that helps for now.

If you want to add pictures measured to the forum size requirements you can get the Tapatalk app and they will size your photos automatically and post them in the forum.

Re: HL Leopard 2A6
I use my smartphone it has a nice camera so just snap a photo once you create a thread and attach it. Very simple and this way your photos will show up automatically instead of a link to a photoHammerWihoutASickle wrote:Ah, I'll do that.c.rainford73 wrote:If you want to add pictures measured to the forum size requirements you can get the Tapatalk app and they will size your photos automatically and post them in the forum.
