Hi Bigwheel_inc,
I'm downunder, live off the east coast of the country a little way from Sydney, where are you
planning to settle, the guys up in Queensland (The Sunshine State) have a great club Morton Bay
RC tanks in Brisbane. Also there is a great model show in Newcastle (North of Sydney) a few rc
tanks made it last show.
There are a few suppliers who provide great service, found this guy who is doing some interesting
custom tanks and even looks like getting some Hooben tanks (Fingers crossed).

The best thing for us at the moment is our $ is strong so it is a great time to buy overseas!
The problem we have had getting together is distance, it's a big country, long distances from state
to state, city to city. Combined with this is the relatively small population, which translates to
smaller amount of rc tankers! (Its amazing that we can get a Rugby or Cricket team to beat the
English with less than quarter the population to pick our team, ashes coming couldn't help myself!)
Wherever you plan to settle there will be someone close by, we are generally very nice except
when it comes to Cricket and Rugby! (against England or New Zealand)
When you make it get in touch, if it's Sydney or Brisbane it'd be great to catch up have a few beers,
talk tanks or perhaps catch a day at one of this summer's Ashes tests?
No Worries Mate,
Panzerman
