Hi and welcome to the forum :wave:

If you want to see some tanks in action before buying and general picking brains of people why not come to the next Hyde tank meet. It's held every third Sunday of the month. It's a great day with a range of people from Newbies right through to years of experience.

Ian.

Thanks for the welcome, really appreciated,would definitely be interested in coming along to Hyde Ian, if you let me know the details will come along and have a look.

I have been gifted a s&s tiger1. It's a faithful reproduction it has already broken down twice! Just like the real thing. The left hand gearbox has the teeth stripped off the drive sprocket connection so I am getting really judders movement, going to need a new one and the turret has stopped moving as well!

I will raise a thread on this so that other people can learn from my experiences, on the plus side I have learnt a lot abut the tank!

Thanks

Dave
