Nice! Two questions:

1) Did you make/print the boxes, stretcher yourself or get the goodies somewhere?

2) Does the motor have enough power to turn the propeller? I have two, bought a few years apart, and I’m wondering if the gear lash it too tight, as neither prop can turn with any speed (whereas the Torro Schwimmwagens work well).

You just think you've caught up with a few things then someone comes along to tempt you with something else! Great job on the upgrade. Where did the figure come from? I watched the video and was surprised at how well it handled the transition over rough ground.

Driver is from Torro, I just made armbands and put declaration on the helmet.
I'm also surprised by how it both drives and sails.... So time will tell if it continues to do so. But much better drive style and electric parts than their halftrack.
