Hi Oztruck,
Sorry I never made myself clearer, I can see the work you have done on the front ,back, suspension, return rollers( I wrote idlers Doh!) etc
what I really meant was are the roadwheels still in the same place/distance apart?

Cheers Ian

Hi Ian, the second road wheel needs to be moved forward about 4mm. Hope this helps ;D

Most of the main building is done. Still some more detail work and then on to painting.
Waiting for sound system, battle system, and still have to convert the 3/1 gearboxes.

Jeez, your Centurion looks absolutely breathtaking Oztruck. I've been following this jaw-dropping build of yours with amazement ever since you started the thread. I think a good many RC-Tankers have always coveted a 1/16 Centurion, now you have demonstrated a way of doing just that. Brilliant work. Can't wait to see a vid of it up and running like your other stuff.

Cheers
Chris  ;D
