Mine arrived today & is quite a nice kit as expected from Takom. Now let's see how this little beast can be converted & hope that Spade Ace comes out with a set of metal track to fit since these plastic links won't cut it.

Possibly Asiatam tracks for Opel Maultier would fit?

I've also recently purchased this kit, as others have already said, it's a nice little kit from takom and with a bit of work should be capable of rc, better tracks would be a good option :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

All my RC Panzer I's are using the Asiatam tracks (years before they were made of metal, now in ABS available but still working good). Depending on the drive dia. and the pitch it may also work for the Takom tank.

Pos. 8 are the gear box aluminum parts. The sprocket is not included; you have to ask him about the price.
The rest are commercial parts.
