That is one NICE Tiger Tony. What internal upgrades have you done on the WSN electronics/gearboxes. All the best for now

i,m gonna put in a rx18 the rear idler tensioning tool metal sprocket metal idler metal tracks and metal gears, and i may need to reinforce the whole lower hull with 2mm plastic card as its not as strong as the H/L hull, its funny that i spent the best part of 30yrs doing 1/35 scale models and i have built them in some strange places, Iraq Afghanistan Kurdistan ulster Africa the Berlin wall Bosnia and a few more places besides and now i have no interest in them, if its not 1/16 i don't get the same buzz on the plus side the parts are bigger and easier to handle and see, thanks for looking in and the input motivation and inspiration guys............

my eyes must be worse than i thought Tony, i can hardly see the catches robs making for my stowage bins, and they are 1/16!!!, still, none of us are getting any younger, i like the 1/35 models, but they dont have the same presence as the 1/16 stuff
