Hi all
The next meeting of the club will again have as a Guest, Dave and Julie from FORGEBEAR TANKS who is going to bring along a selection of spares for your Tanks so if you want anything in particular Dave said please give them a ring and they will try and bring it along.
For anyone who is visiting us for the first time we can be found at the Great Gonerby Social Club, 8 High Street, Great Gonerby, Grantham, Lincs, NG31 8JP doors open at 10.00am untill 16.30pm. We meet in the main hall of the club and have all the clubs facility's to use ie. Toilets, Tea and Coffee (and a pint in you want it, makes the tank driving more fun ). there is ample parking and a pub nearby (25m) does Sunday lunches if you want to bring you wife/partner for a day out. Looking forward to seeing you all.

Like Michal Jackson said I'll be there.

I might be able to make it again.

Should be there if I can get the transmitter to work with rechargeable batteries - works fine with Duracell....

Ed - did you get the ramp & buses sorted?

If it's the hang long transmitter, rechargables are slightly too big for the box and don't make good contact because the plastic between the batteries so best to remove the plastic.

Thanks. It was the HL & Torro controllers. What I didn't know was that rechargeable AA's are 1.2V and regular are 1.5V Wonder if that makes a difference given output profiles etc?

Edit - is anyone bringing HL IR battle tanks? Debating fitting the KV2 turret to the T34 in the short term.

Hi robw
I have 3 HL ir's that I'll bring

I'll give you a battle rob.....I'll blow you off the bridge...

OK, will see if Frankentank's Monster will work over the weekend.
