Just a question, I have seen people having disk break on the Leo2. How to do it? Is it after market or stock?

I've never seen it done...but it's probably aftermarket ...possibly using RC car parts ;)

You could not have said a truer word , drove to my house to make sure my new toy was exactly what I wanted ..... Tested it on my lawn and low and behold it did what I required . I highly recommend this chap . He's on here and eBay as forgebear.
I will be using this chap again for all my tank problems.
Respect to big Dave ...

Good for you Steel B.....Don't want to step on anyone's toes....but I agree with you on the bracing....a lot of times they aren't really necessary for HLs...I find the aluminum bucketed tanks flex more than the old HL molds...those are pretty strong and durable....Have had a couple drop from 6 ft onto a hardwood floor with more decorative things break off than any damage to the Hull...the one thing the plastic is prone to do is warp from heat or outside temp....Here is not so bad...I have only had problems with the M1 where the plastic is a tad thinner and the hull much longer than WWII tanks...Your LEO might start having problems after awhile ...but you plan to change it to that metal hull...so the problem is already solved ;)
On your PanTiger...yeah wait for those tensioners to arrive....remounting will compensate for any warpage that may have occurred :D


Have fun with your tanks Steel B :thumbup:

I only did I t to mine, because the tracks wouldn't stay on. Lol

As long as you are having fun, it doesn't really matter what you do.

And yes, buying from Forgebear was a very pleasant experience. :thumbup:

And Congrats on locking down the Taigen deal :clap: :clap:
