As the title says, they should not be combined!...had a bbq yesterday, and sat in the sun, drank some wine, had some burgers, more wine...I ended up buying another Heng Long tiger. I logged onto my account this afternoon and found that i won, the wife WILL be pleased when she sees what i have done.. ::)

(not sure if you'll get away with it though)

It could be worse...I have been outbid on the second tiger!...Whats worse is the fact that i am working away this week, so she will see the parcel, no sneaking to the garage this time! ;D

Yep...last year i bought a buggy....one of those role cage ones, with a little 150cc engine...now that was drunk!..

Seriously though, i am happy to win the tank on ebay, all the electonics and gun recoil are worth the 30 odd pounds, which helps with my other builds.

Lucky or what!...postie delivered the tank this morning, the wife is working today! :D...Its an WSN version, electronics shot...but accuracy wise its better than the heng long. (still prefer the heng long, as i use all your ideas to make it a better tank!)
