Hey there, how is the experience with the Corleis suspension that us sold at rctank for instance?

Hello,

i have installed this suspension system in all my tanks, and I've done that for a lot of customers.
You can and may say it's the best you can do, and buy. There are people who have trouble adjusting this suspension properly, but if you follow the instructions you will have a lot of fun with the tank.

Corleis has been part of Wecohe while they worked together.

with kind regards,Guido

Thank you Guido. I found a few pdf manuals already and your video shows an amazingly great working suspension. The Taigen suspension always has around 5-10mm slag at the end of the arms. So I might give it a try for my last Panther.

And yours is a fantastic looking Jagdpanther.

Cheers, Sören

By the way, were you involved in WeCoH?

Hello Soeren,

no, I was not part of Wecohe, I registered my business in 2008.
If I had been part of Wecohe then Wecohe would not have been closed

by the way, thank you for your praise for the Jagdpanther, he is a really great runner

with regards,Guido

Have it in now. Adds a lot if weight. But, it doesn't have as much empty movement.

Hello Soeren,

do you think so?

I have the experience that with a very good suspension, it takes no weight to achieve a dynamic look in the chassis.
In the Tamiya-Jagdpanther no additional weight is installed or glued.

Well, parts of the original Taigen suspension are definately lighter compared to the whole Corleis set. This is not necessarily a bad thing, just an observation.

And that there is less/no free unloaded movement is a really good thing, because this will give direct response. Something the Taige suspension doesnt do.

The only thing the Taigen stuff does better is the mounting of the hull side torsion bar catch. That is interlocked into suqare cut outs in the two L-shaped profiles. The Corleis suspension pieces rely on a pulled tight screw.
