Hi OZ Great job and it runs at a good speed which gearboxes did you use ,the only thing I can see that may need modifing is the transmission bit you have put on the gearboxes it may foul when on rough ground .
regards pete

Re: Half Track with Quad 50's
Oztruck,
your video and the half track is exceptionally done. WOW! The details you put in there amazes me! AND you turned your backyard into a 1:16 scale war zone. That is just so cool man! I like the way you placed that GI on the trike pointing to where the half track should go.
Is your kit an RC or you just made it into one?
A reporter ask a US Delta Force Sniper based in Afghanistan - "What do you feel when you shoot them (Taliban)?" ... "Recoil".
Re: Half Track with Quad 50's
Thanks for the nice words, the 1/2 track is a 21st century 1/18 toy converted to RC. I used a twin Tamiya toy gearbox and the HL electronics + 2 converted RC servos.
As for the "Village Bakyard" its a great place to run my stuff. I enjoy running my stuff in the sun. Your only young once, make it last as long as you can
