As a consequence of a recent advance in years, I am now the owner of the above kit. It's a huge box, which I have not opened yet. I was wondering if it is practical to convert it to RC and whether anyone had done it? Otherwise, it will become a shelf queen, requiring a very large shelf.

People have converted entire trumpeter kits into RC (thinking ausfs excellent t34) however I would get the Taigen chassis and use the upper hull and details to build it up!

The strength of this kit is the fine detailed interior that will be lost. I recommend market alternatives that are designed for RC.
