Hey all, I just realised, the forum started eleven years ago today, 20th July, and Matt Dragon was obviously its first member.

Happy birthday RC Tank Warfare.

And thank you kindly Matt for making this great forum for us to enjoy :clap: :clap: :clap:

As I look back at the years that I have been pleased to be a member of this Forum I remember Dietrich who taught me how it was possible using only magnets to secure tank hull to tank body,
A practice that has successfully held all my tanks together ever since,
Wherever you are My grateful thanks Sir, :thumbup:
And those of us who knew the General will never forget him, He taught me Haiku and that pink was a totally acceptable colour for a Panzer4, and why not ? The SAS paint their Landies in that hue. :thumbup:
I dislike assumptions but it is almost certainly true to say that without Rad Schuharts expositions on Radio transmitters and the way to get the best from them a lot of us would be feeling in the dark.
The help that Dave and Ian give to members of this Forum when they could as businessmen charge us for that information,
The selfless giving of all that they know about 3D printers/ing and the codes for them by Alwyn, Woz, Max and others,
And how many of us use weathering and other ways with paint to authenticate the look of our builds.
And the Glue that holds this worldwide madhouse together, People such as Herman, Painless, Terry, Mick and someone who has pushed me onward when I wanted to stop, Roy,
A lot of good people who are truly too numerous to mention but you know who you are, Thank you all and happy birthday.
And I don't know what we are doing right but we still attract new members and a very warm welcome to you all :wave:

Good Afternoon,
Happy Birthday and all the Thanks that I am capable of giving. I would not have picked this RC Tank Hobby up and gone forward with it to the extent that I have without the Friends that I have made here. It Builds and Grows still and I am sure that without the enthusiasm show in the Forum, many of the things and vehicles that we enjoy in the Hobby today would not exist.
profound regards,
Painless
