After seeing Louise's thread it made me think that I've never posted that build.
This is a conversion to RC of the static Heller/Trumpeter Panzer III. Different versions can be made from this kit, I chose the tropicalized ausf. L (Afrika Korps).
For those who remember, I already converted the Heller/Trumpeter StuG III to RC, using Henglong chassis.
This time I'm using the kit chassis, even the plastic torsion bars! After some modifications so they can accept the extra load of the electronics, battery and gearbox, they work like a charm.
They are very smooth unlike the awful Henglong one
However I made two major modifications to the chassis : metal idler tensioner (detailed with the plastic parts, the metal parts are too rough) and the front and rear suspensions, made from aluminium on a lathe.

Initial fitting, torsion bars are not glued yet nor modified :
