November TOTM submission, now voting thread.

Post by Son of a gun-ner »

My apologies for the delay, I've been sleeping an incredible amount of time since someone considerate shared a bug or two at the Blackpool weekend.

I'm almost back to my full annoying sarcastic self, although, my favourite foods still don't taste as good as they once did.

Anyway, the TOTM is now on, especially as I received a reminder that I hadn't actually started a fresh competition, a reminder in the form of a marvellous RCTW/TOTM calendar :D

I hope the delay hasn't dampened anyone's enthusiasm for this month.

Please submit the usual 8 visual representations of an RC military model of your choice from your collection, within the seven day submission time.

The dedicated chat thread can be found here.

NUMBER 1

Sorta quiet here, gotta fill with something.

A Ram II tank, early WW2 Canadian creation on a M3 medium chassis from the US. A Vandramodel conversion on a Heng Long chassis. The bogies are retro fitted to M3 type with center rollers and the transmission cover is M3 type. The secondary turret is run by a Random Servo Motion Generator by RC Geek. As always for me, this is a working tank, a veteran of club battles, hence the IR receiver built in to the turret in place of the hatch. Decals are from Forgebear.

NUMBER 3

Here is my M51 Sherman, it was built using a tamiya lower hull and turret with a mato cast upper hull. All motor units inside are tamiya but it's running on an ibu2 board.
