Re: Hobby RC Abrams M1A2 Desert Tank
Hi Tackleberry,
The HE Leopard and Abrams have identical electronics and running gear. If you are going to replace the electronics you might aswell swap the running gear. I converted the HE Leopard 2-A5 to HL electronics and HL Pershing running gear a while ago and she's still running sweet.
Have a look here: http://www.rctankwarfare.com/Forums/index.php/topic,175.0.html
Hope this helps
John
PS: I didn't fit airsoft but I did give her a laser designator.

This is a great help I've got some spare Preshing running gear.

Re: Hobby RC Abrams M1A2 Desert Tank
No problem. You will need an extra 20 track links per side if you are going to fit Pershing running gear.
Good luck with your project.
