RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hello again fellow TOTM enthusiasts.

Just a note for voters. Because we have two Tiger 1's.

As always, the models are listed in the poll in the same order they have been submitted. Also, to lessen confusion, I have named each one the same name/model as the submitter stated.

I apologise if I didn't make it more clear.

Here is my Churchill Mk VII for your consideration. A straight forward built from the OKMO/DKLM 3D printed kit, metal tracks, running on an IBU2U (with custom sound from youtube as nobody seems to have a sound file for the Churchill's engine, 6 pounder and the Besa MG......) and a PDSGB gearbox. Stowage and custom decal from Dean @ DGS Military Hobby. As always Master Level weathering from Dean also.

In support of TOTM here are My early Tiger 1. Hopefully it will trigger more entries.

M4A3E8

Tamiya based with Schumo T23 turret.

Tamiya Pershing mf and dmd, lights etc added.

Painted by Gary Farrow, stowage and figures added by me at a later date.

I’ll throw my hat into the ring as well. Here’s my first rc tank, an initial production Tiger 1 which started out as a Heng Long but is now 95% Taigen. The upper hull is the only remaining HL component. I’ve used detail parts from all the usual vendors from all over the world. The aftermarket supply is amazing as is all the help I’ve received from this forum. I just finished installing a Clark TK-40s board which is controlled by a Flysky FS i6s transmitter. The motors are 390’s with 4:1 steel gears on ball bearings. I’ve omitted my new Tarr smoker to make room for an improved speaker. The sound effect quality deserves a better speaker. The airsoft equipped turret also has barrel recoil. Very cool to watch.
The tank is my attempt at representing one the very first few Tiger 1s to see action while headed toward Leningrad in around Sept. of ‘42 with the newly formed 502nd Heavy Tank Battalion.
