RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hello,

I have been interested in RC for about 40 years and scale model building for almost as long, I got my first Tamiya Sherman around 1995 and have been collecting ever since. I am in the process of updating the Sherman and will follow up with rebuilding my Tiger 1 and King Tiger. Unfortunately there are very few hobby shops in Hawaii, with limited selection.

My interest in Tanks stems from my time in the Army as a M1 Tanker, these scale models move very similar to the real thing and it is a way to relive my younger days as an armor crewman.

Aloha

Joe

Welcome, Joe ('G.I.Joe' might be better in view of the M1 service.. )
You're not the sole Hawaiian on the Forum, and we have had distinguished contributors from there in the past. I'm sure we'll look forward to your pics, hard-earned wisdom and general input in future.
Though you're way behind us...timewise..have a Happy New Year when it arrives. Maybe a few more
Hawaiian members will spur someone to create a great model shop or resource there. The Forum probably had an influence on HL and Taigen future planning (I hope- albeit small... )...so, you never know.
Anyway, we can but try.

Hope you enjoy your time on here , if you need help with anything fire a post on the forum ,I am sure someone will have the answer.

Joe, Welcome to the Forum,
You I fear will have a challenge ahead of you to uphold an impressive history of R/C Tank builders from the Hawaiian Islands,
I hope you will bring your own individual insights into our hobby and we welcome questions and even more we welcome members who can help us with answers so if you know stuff tell us please,
Enjoy this Forum,
