sorry for no updates these past few weeks. the modelling has come to a pause for now due to me need to get electronics for the tank itself.

once installed i can run a few trials on how this thing runs with its tracks and how well it can keep itself running without getting tracked.

Hi Gig,
I managed to get a brand new complete HL Tiger 1 from EBay with the V6.0 control board for £88 delivered.
My thought was to avoid having to make up leads with the added benefit of having the functioning IR set up too.
You’ll be very impressed with the slow speed control
Cheers
Wayne
