Hi Mag and Tom,
Yea I'd like to get the metal version no price on that one at the moment!. Never realy been into modern AFV's but since building the tamiya Leo2 then the HL Leo changed my mind. So very inpatient to get one hope it won't be too long. Brian...

Hey Briz...if you are in a rush
http://www.hobbyraw.com/item.jsp?id=939 be warned though ...those guys are kind of sketchy when it comes to questions ...and it takes a long time ....My T34 took about two months to get to me...and I had to open a Paypal complaint for them to reply
The thing is ..they do deliver

I purchased mine from Imex and had a flawless transaction. The metal gear in the picture is upgraded and has not been released yet from what I am finding.

Hi John,
No no no I want them both
. Just seams to be so long till they release them here.Yes there are some on eBay but £249 for a box standerd model that's takeing the p##s they have been on there for two weeks now and not sold!!. I know they will be on sale soon. They just seam to be dragging it out. No could not get it to work I see there are two wires/ red and black what are the for. Leo's coming along fine just started to make new turret baskets soon as they are done I'll put some pics on. Must sit down a read my instructions for my camera I got for Xmas it's a canon 5D Mk111. So many buttons not enough fingers

Brian, when you get time, I will take you through the wiring for the smoker,its not difficult there should be 6 wires, 2 obviously go into the RX18, the other 4 connect to +and- on the motors but you have to make sure you get the right pair for left and the right. Drop me a line when your ready.
