Some of you, guys, appear on the entry!

Some pics so you have an idea of what to find, in case you think this entry is about something else.

I am sure you can! I did not do anything too special.

I drove the tank in Stolzdorf outskirts for a quick patrol mission and I managed to destroy a t34!

Looking very good

I enjoyed our review, Rad. Without a doubt, you've really customised the Pz IV in an admirable way, such that the tank looks good, and eye-catching, from every angle.
I've also bookmarked your link to Jeff Shiu's scale figures. They really are a bit special.
Like you, I'm a fan of the Tamiya Pz IV, although mine is still pretty much standard. Above all, it's the shell I like, as it's pretty close to the real Ausf J.
Doubtless, the Elmod would give a better electronic heart, but the Tamiya DMDs will have to do for the moment.

@Ad Lav, thanks, mate!
@43rd, Thank you too!

Yep, that Jeff Shiu is unbelievable. I am sorry for him and most of his job being clonned in aliexpress for a fraction the price, but he is definitelly gifted. He released a summer troops set a couple of months ago which is also impressive. It is worth to keep checking his website, he adds new things in regular basis.

Hi Rad Very nice figures . Noticed all you lighting functions ,is each light on an separate switch/function. Have you considered writing up a how to with the TX radios.

Hi, yes, I thought about it, but it is a bit like opening a can of worms. I know how to do it in Er9x, ErskyTx and OpenTx software based radios, but don't know how to do it with non open source radios. I guess last thing I want is to have one million guys writting me how to trigger the functions with their craptaba/crapsons 4ch radios, and then being offended when I tell them most of the things are not possible with their equipment. Yeah, it happened to me in the past plenty of times, lol.

So if somebody has any question yeah, I can answer when I have time, but I think at this point I have no energy for another radio discussion.

Said that I just published a video with the mixes I have in my Panzer IV. I dont know if it will help too much due to my radio is fully customized and I am also using logic switches for the user sounds, but It might bring some guidance.



For those who don't speak german, all the german voices are translated in the order I play them in the video description.

I took some cool pics today! A bit foggy though, but it looks like the real thing

Nice photos. Makes me feel cold looking at those tank riders!
