Thats good to hear that the Famo is available again. I too would like to get one someday. I think my next tank purchase is going to be a T-55 though. I wonder if maybe the reason is was discontinued for a while was there were some issues with it and now they have fixed those issues? It would be nice to know but as Maxx says they dont respond to e mail or nothing. Tom recommends the elefant but the one i got from aisa tam appears to have been made on a friday afternoon on a holiday weekend

Well that's it, I have ordered the Famo and fingers crossed it should be ok.
Will post some photosphere I receive it.
I don't know the reason for it disappearing from the website occasionally but I guess it may just be Asiatam just running out of stock.
Next job is to decide what control system to use, Elnod/Asiatam/Clark etc.
Regards
Steve

Eddy, did he make any extra sets? That would be very interesting.

He's thinking about it... But the price, as he told, will be aprox as for Asiatam wheel kit at least...
