Welcome Sir!

You'll find several Tiger I and Abrams builds to stir your modeling juices.
I have an M1A1 Abrams with TUSK 1 that started out as a Heng Long M1A2 found here, you might find helpful.

Welcome aboard. Have a daughter just north of OKC. I hear you've got a nice armor display nearby, next trip to Oklahoma, I intend to give it a look. I'm relatively weak at electrics for these and tend to use the stock ones. I have an old PzIII that needs a new running system and am considering ordering a new one to rob its system for the old tank. It looks like a complete tank is just a couple bucks more than piecing a system together (and I'd have a parts tank left over).

Welcome from Southern Illinois! I have a particular fascination with the Tiger 1. Here’s my build thread on my Initial Production Tiger if you’re interested. The electronics I’m using is an Elmod Fusion Pro which is out of production but their newer version might be satisfactory.
