1/16 Elefant Scratch build Kit by Christian Ludwig

Post by George »

Hello

Has anyone started it OR built it? This is a 1/16 Elefant scratch build kit offered by Christian Ludwig from Germany. He supplies the hull, lower in plastic or aluminum and the Upper in his laser cut thick plastic.
You as the builder buy ALL the parts to make it an R.C complete model.
My question is from whom are you getting your parts to complete the model? Which model are the parts sourced from?
I have JUST the aluminum lower hull and the laser cut plastic upper.

Need EVERYTHING ELSE!!!!!

Thanks for your help.

Hey there George. When I remember correctly, he comments on the parts for the running gear that can be used. For instance asiatam etc.

Asiatam do the running gear, the gun, and some of the accessories; you can find them here. Most of the finer details and functionality (traverse, elevation, recoil) you'd need to build yourself.

There's a good example of a build here by xrad, the thread might be of some use to you.
