wsn t34/85 to hl
quite a while back I picted up a unit that was not functional real cheap on ebay. Converting the electronics to HL rx 18 took a little thought but the end result is a nice model that runs perfectly with nice proportional control. It is detailed as a north korean T34 that I have seen in 2 different websites that describe it as having taken part in the original invasion of south korea. The only thing I added that the real one did not have are the rear fuel drums. Im still trying to find a few of what I think were 1/16 dragon model tank crewmen with the quilted coverals so I can add a korean looking crew.

- The in off switch and a pull out battery recharger plug are located in the hinged access panel and the smoker refill opening is the little round plug in the rear grill which at some time I will move to a less conspicuas location.

- front view. the smoker and volume switches are inside the drivers hatch and the green headlight has been replaced by a white one.The front hull and main gun mantle machine guns now work of the mg button on the controller. The barrel recoils but I havent tried yet to change the dim barrel flash to something better

Thats a nice job!
I'm looking to do the same as converting to RX18
Can you shed some light on how you did it at all?
Cheers
