Heng Long Sherman Redux'

[PainlessWolf]

Good Evening.
After all my braggadocio about fixing the old tracks on my HL 1:30 RC Sherman...BAM! One wrong turn on the living room rug today and off it came, unspooling pretty as a picture. Same track again, same spot. Well, to save a lot of text this time, I got out my new tracks and compared them to the old ones. The side guide horns weren't quite as tall as on the old tracks and of course, there was that extra set of guides running right down the middle. I took out a set of plastic snips and went to work removing the center set of guide horns. A few minutes later and I had one shiny new set of tracks for my HL M4 There seems to be no issue with track retention with the smaller guide horns. Who knows, maybe they are to scale this time? An interesting last fact about this new set of tracks before I start the picture show, instead of being glued together, they are pinned in one link. Throws my earlier assumptions out the window and raises some questions. Questions, I hopefully won't have to look for an answer to for another 9 years.
Regards,
