Now some think, my comments are Negative but they are Not.
Just My thoughts, on a Video build that has been very good .
I am sure, if you would
Not like any Comments you would have Stated That in your First Post. I leave the Brown Nosing to others.

you're a good sport Harry, its all good, thank you for the compliment.
I'm a bit of a scatter brain and forgot to do mud splatter, so there will be a part 12 with some more NooB how-to's

Wow Barry, great photo!
That is a whole bucket of nasty on that sucker, I am going to add some mud, but I think I will stick to my plan of more "rained on" than dipped in a mud-bog like the above shot.
I do however think I may dirty up the road-wheels A LOT more than I have so far.
Also guys I have an event to attend tonight and family flying in from up north Friday so may not be able to get much done this weekend but I will do my best.

Cool looking Sheridan. Looking forward to your Leo too. The mg3 is made by whoom? And why don't you like the Tamiya one?

I don't think the Tamiya 2A6 comes with an MG3 out of the box.
This one was from DKLM RC (OKMO)

You are right, I checked the instructions, no mg3 shown.
