Dels Panther g

Post by Del »

I was going to Finnish my kv1 first but I had half an hour while dinner was cooking.
So far the score is Panther 0 screwdriver 1 :haha
The gearboxes flex on their mounts more than I'd like so I will have to sort that some how.
Here's some before and after pics,now back to the kv.

Almost picked up the kv but the bag of nice shiny suspension arms made me fit them :haha:
A nice touch is a couple of spare arms in the kit.
If any one reading this needs some plastic suspension arms you can have them,just cover the postage.

I like the Panthers Del, I have two G models. I'm going to convert the Taigen Panther G into an F model as soon as the hulls and turrets arrive in the states. I'll be following your build.

We have a product here in the US called BlackenIt that gives the same result. I really like the way it makes the tracks look and easy to use like the Bluing agent you just used. Herman has it right, "It is magic eh!!"

It's an ibu2 pro as mentioned,the speakers are visatron fr7's and I don't remember the make on the amp but I prefer the mounting set up to the usual tpa setup as the cables mean you don't have a unit balanced on the board wobbling around on the pins.
