I'm kind of new to RC tanks as I've nearly finished overhauling my Tiger 1. I'm not sure how much I should adjust the idlers. I have a taigen lower hull if that's helps. It has two small nuts either side of the hull which you can adjust it but I'm not sure how tight or loose I should have my tracks. I can't attach photos which is annoying! So if anyone can helps me what so ever I'll be grateful.

Well everyone is different but I have mine running from the front sprocket too just touching the top of the second road wheel
Hopefully you can see what I mean here, you may have to adjust abit one way or the other with abit of trial and error, hope this helps!

I'll give that a go, thanks!

The accepted measure for a Tiger 1 is the tracks come off the front sprocket, miss the first wheel set just graze the second wheel set and touch down on the third wheel set. These being metal tracks.

Spongehoob has it right, you'll want some slack but not too much. Not so tight it puts tension on your wheel arms, but not to loose it runs off the roadwheels. You should be able to easily lift the return track from the roadwheels a few cm with your pinky.
