RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hello Gents...
I know most of you experienced modellers know most of the tricks in the book when it come to RC tankery...guys like me.. we go searching sometimes..
I find stuff on YOUTUBE... that seem pretty cool... but with no explanation ... things just become an exercise in futility

Take this for instance... totally cool

but just enough to add up to a pile of beans

Why even bother I ask... as the benefit isn't truly shared

I know exactly how you feel

I have a bruder D9 buldozer in 1/16 ..and want to put gearboxes in and upgrade to an Israeli armoured dozer ...there a few good vids to watch of thething working ..but no way to contact the poster ..and ask where the build was ....pix's me right off

I too have searched for answers to some builds. Sometimes you have to look to other forums though. This is a good one to look at and many things can be useful in the tank hobby from this forum. They even have several Bruder D10 builds goi g on.

For mods and tips ... you would think a video could convey things well ... but the stuff on YOUTUBE... imo .. is just a waste of time.... the only worth is if you are interested in ready to runs... as you can clearly see the pros and cons of purchasing a pre-made model

I even found a video of the guy who is building the JS-2 ... about how he "easily" modded a recoil... unfortunately .. it was only for the TAMIYAs and it was super vague

It's like they are keeping secrets ... it's annoying... I say if they are going to share... share..if they want to keep it ... keep it and don't post anything... less clutter imo
