6-wheeled Sd.Kfz.231 – Beginning of Wehrmacht reconnaissance

[Rad_Schuhart]

Hi Louis,
thanks for you detailed explanation about the electronics you'd use, but I have no clue to do this (for now). Maybe later if I find a colleague next to me who will do that for me.
So, maybe you will show us later what's possible to do with this kit

I have seen you live in Austria, if you ever come to Graz I will be here willing to help.
I am one of the electronic freaks here.

Tapping the axle’s end…

Good work going on, will watch out for updates.

Smart build, following with interest

[Panzerjaeger66]

The original gear motor is too weak, so I’ve designed a stronger one as mentioned before.







Temporary I’m using the WPL gear for steering, but will be later exchanged with a servo.





Some progress and details at the lower hull…













…until the hull is finished.

Next step means the upper hull.

An overview…







…and ready


(only plugged - not screwed)

Less work at the turret is needed..



For easy moving, flange bearings are used.

The build is done so far…
