Help Needed for next project

Post by solosyphos »

Hi All
Finally coming to the end of our steel 1/8th steel panzer III build and am looking for a new project. We fancy building a half track of some description but have been warned about the half tracks being too powerful and overcoming the steering. Apparantly the solution is to fit a rear drive differential but have no idea where to buy such a thing. There are buggy 1/8th size differentials but 1/8 of a buggy is nowhere near 1/8 of a large truck so I can't even search for 1/8 differentials on the internet as all I get are buggy type diffs..... Any ideas from you peeps wolud be greatly appreciated :clap: :clap: :clap:

Could you post some pics of the Panzer please. Have you got any 1/8th figures? If so where did you get them?
Cheers

I used a Traxas Revo differential found on ebay in my 250 build and worked great and steering was also great useing the front wheels. The differenitial worked great, in the turns the inside track slowed down and the outside track spead up.
