Ecam is correct. They are grousers. They bolt onto the tracks to add traction in mud or snow.

They use the hollow sides of the M5 track pins to insert in the ends:

One note - Stuart was equipped with 34 grousers in total (mounted on every 4th track) so there weren't probably enough of them to cover the hull like this

Yeah but you don't know how many was either borrowed or acquired from other tanks bit like the extra wheels and tracks used as extra protection

As I suspected, the problem is not the transmission but the electronics. I connected the Beier to the test and immediately the model runs slower

Good to know. Did you sand the Chevrons down or just run the hell out of it on concrete?

Nah, it's just optical illusion. But when they are worn off, I will glue on rubber pads
