Just to say that we had a great meet today, the organised tank battles were good fun, and seeing so much scenery in the hall that we barely had room for it was impressive. I forgot my phone and camera so if anyone has any goodies to share, post them up! :wave:

Yes I agree Rob was a great meeting and fantastic to see so many faces and armour.
Did anyone find a 88mm shell when tidying up? We appear to have lost one from Nathans kt.

A very good day today at the Tank Club meeting ...... the debated suggestion for next meet for those who wanted to participate is maybe a '1 verses 1' knock-out competition until we have a supreme 'tank commander' winner for the day?

I am currently uploading some video footage to You-Tube which I will publish here later.

I didn't hear anyone say that they had found one, and the floor was clear after we finished tidying up. Eg we fold up the tables and store them. I always take a look around the floor for anything that has fallen off tanks but sorry to say there was nothing there.

Yep, all now working. I struggled with getting everything to work correctly on 6 channels for some reason. Am now running with a 8 channel set-up which does just about work correctly. The barrel elevation only works in one direction on the joy stick, but I can live with that. The TK60 is not as easy to set up as the almost plug and play TK22/TK24 in my opinion.
Many Thanks

The splendid ruined building in the 2nd and 4th photos was made by Reilly, one of younger members. :thumbup: He has a great future in scenery building!
