RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hi all its been a while and I'm still new to the forum, and the hobby for that matter. I hope this is the right place to ask this... Anyway, I live in Washington state USA and I'm looking for someone who could build an rc tank for me for a reasonable price. Unfortunately, right now, I have no time to learn how to build one and I'm desperate. And of course no one sells a complete model of the tank I want, even that I could convert to rc, that I wouldn't have the time to do anyway. So I'm looking for someone who does completely custom builds, who is experienced, within a reasonable price range and scale (nothing humongous or undetailed tinyness), and hopefully can do infrared battle(optional ). The tank I want is the Ford 3 ton M1918 if you couldn't guess by my tag. Any suggestions? Thanks!

P.S. dumb question..... what is a reasonable price range?

P.P.S. I have two VSTank tanks in 1/24 scale. A king tiger and a m4a3 (105 wet)

Recommend you sign up over at RC Universe, visit the RC Tank forum & look up Rex Ross. He has one of the largest scratch built 1/16 collections I've come across & would be the first person I would consider if I wanted such an obscure custom build. Rex is based in Benicia, CA so in same time zone as you.

Here's a link to his threads: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/search. ... id=2541262

Thanks! I sure will! Cheers!

Pffff the site is giving me trouble. I think its my firewall or something. It lets me login but I cant get to the forum. I'm doing all my posts and stuff on a Samsung t110 so if that means anything let me know... In the meantime any other suggestions anyone?

Hi, Have you tried-----

It is a bit like reading Cyrillic unless you have a dictionary

Yes, I have and my device gets all kinds of errors. I've tried enabling and disabling everything and clearing cache and other memory and I've tried another device, same result... but I will retry registering.

Yea, ever since they revamped that site, its not been the most user friendly to say the least. Don't know if Rex visits here or frequents any other RC tank forums - he's pretty much old school.

Re-registering worked! I will contact him and see what he says! Thanks again!

I will keep the thread open for more suggestions too just in case

In tank build only problem are tracks - if no one sell it and you must made it yourself price of tank will be huuuge

Manu-Military built one in 1/16 I think. He has a post on this forum about it and a website. I will ask him maybe as well only problem is I think he lives in France
