my fist RC tank build long ago, 1/18 scale
Posted: Tue Feb 10, 2015 5:00 pm
I have mentioned my old 21st Century m48 tank build in a few forums so with cabin fever setting in I dug it out and found that I had made the turret rotate and the main gun elevate and depress.
Although I stripped out the hull electric parts long ago the turret still has everything in it. I built this with a hobby grade radio set that I bought for an old Linburg Line PT boat and on old original 21st century Abrams that I stripped parts off of.
I seem to remember that it worked very well but that the rubber band tracks come off on sharp turns and pivot steers occasionally.
I wish someone would come out with a 1/16th scale M48 or M60
