Hello. I am not sure this is the right way to introduce myself and also ask a question that I am sure has already been asked and answered so maybe some can direct me to where to find an answer. First, I am a "newbee" to this hobby and this site. I have watched videos of RC tanks on YouTube and enjoy them particularly when someone has gone to a lot of effort to build surroundings that are realistic where they can operate their tank and the ambiance looks great. I have just bot a HL Leopard 2A6 with steel tracks and steel gearbox. I am waiting for its delivery from Amazon. Any tips I should know and follow when setting this model up? Then my next question is what GoPro camera does the best for attaching and capturing the video and sound as the tank is moved around? Finally, in case Amazon does not include the oil to use for making smoke what is the suggestion about getting glycerine or something else that will work. Thanks BUZZC

Hello and welcome to the forum
I have removed your post from someone else's introduction and given you your very own thread
Only thing, to save confusion, I had to change the topic title, but you can change it to whatever you like.

Enjoy the forum, and I hope you find the answers you seek.

Welcome aboard! Be sure to post pics of your new Leopard when you can.
