RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

After a long trip from China, my new toy arrived yesterday. It's big, and it's heavy, and I can't wait to take it out tomorrow for a test drive up a Welsh mountain..

Wibbs, I think I may have to stow away on a boat across the pond and hide out in your attic as an illegal immigrant. You're cool with that, right? Maybe i can make the rounds. I'll hide out in Wayne's attic for a while, then maybe Tom's attic, then Martin's. Be a cheap way to get a vacay, don't ya think?

That puppy looks awesome, and I can't wait to see some video.

That's a lot of attics, and not much room for you as they are probably all filled with tanks. No need to stow away, just paddle across in a leaking rubber dinghy. You'll be fine.

This is closer to the truth than you might think...

Cool toy.
I want to get me one of these for sure.

I dread to think....

Wibbs, you will love it........ I love mine, and just in case you haven't seen it yet, you will have something to tow soon.

The models and accessories under development are really impressive, but the advertised cost of a trailer is almost double what I paid for the truck?? The missile launcher is amazing but will cost megabucks.

Time to get the styrene out I think? It would also be great if I could make the crane. The rotating mount is already there, which will make like easier. Adding lights will be fairly easy, either the manufacturers kit or a pile of led's and a voltage regulator. I have a remote controlled winch that is waiting to go on as well.

I was lucky, I picked up an RC crawler that had the winch and an ESS sound unit, so basically I got those for free.

Oh my didn't realize that........ Still, very tempting.

I have the same dark yellow trailer as you, and I already bought the bed separately (in army green) and will look to buy other pieces as they become available.

Here we go, a quick video. Sorry about the noise, I had mounted the sound unit where I couldn't reach the volume control...
