Well this was a thread about the T-34 and somehow got off track. Back to the T-34. I upgraded the T-34 to a 2.4ghz IR battle tank. So now I have a 1/35 Tiger 1, Sherman M4A8, T-34 battle Tanks. All three tanks have the Tamiya metal gearbox. This collection of three tanks cost approximately $900 to build. Worth every penny IMO.Von Mooflesaaa wrote:Wow that looks great mate.

I am sure you could buy a very nice 1/16 scale for that price but I have no interest in the 1/16 scale. I probably have 60 or more RRC tanks and the only way that is possible is 1/35 scale. Oh I look at the 1/16 tanks now and then and I even had one back in 1979. A 1/16 Tamiya Leopard tank with metal gearbox with the "tiller arm" for steering. I still have the gearbox somewhere from the model but it was modified to work in a Lindberg PT-109 model. Hopefully I still have that somewhere.
Anyway back to the Tamiya T-34...
