Guys, is this an acceptable size for a ruined house? I intend putting a half demolished 2nd floor in with a collapsed roof, sort of bomb/artillery damaged. You can stick what you like behind the outer walls, they are superglued down and have the consistency of concrete. ;)

The idea is that you can still see a tank behind it, but can't shoot through it, and it is taller than a tank with a Tamiya battle unit in it. ???

A day of coincidences?

To cut a long story short, we took a look at the Templecombe BMX track today, and realised that this would make a perfect outdoor tank battlefield. Drove back to the scout hut and there is a lady walking her dog stood right outside. Andy had 'the problems with hell today' with getting hold of the key for the new barrier that had been installed, and as he knew the lady he mentioned it to her. The scout hut and what we used it for came up, she then mentions that she is the vice chair of the Parish Council and told us who had the keys. Andy then asks her about the BMX track, and within 5 minutes we had been reliably informed that we can have it reserved for our sole use on the days that we want it, and that the council will maintain it, cut the grass etc etc. There is a God after all, and he loves RC tanks. :angel:

This is what we now have, and we plan to make use of it from next spring. All free of charge.... :wave:

You will be more than welcome, when we use it we will have sole use, so RC tanks and trucks and nothing else will be allowed in. It's a huge area and perfect for tanks. :thumbup:
