Welcome. Sounds interesting. How about a bit of courtesy introductory info about yourself and your hobby experiences? That would at least make your responses more appropriate for your skill level.

What's your interest in tanks? You are an indirect fire type a guy with that 11C designation? :)

Mini / Micro Tanks you say :thumbup: I moved to 1/16 so I could see what I'm doing.

Micro tanks are cool

well, im not really new to the RC world, i mostly have been on the Flying side of the hobby. recently got into FPV flying and cant seem to put it down, so i hoping to somehow add the Fpv systems into any builds i do lol. Also am trying to build a warship combat model as well (3 years in the making lol) and found how painful scratch building can be.

as for the username, its nothing really to do with indirect fire. just the first thing that popped into my mind when setting up my account :P
for the tanks, well i have wayyyy to many 1/35 models ranging from ww2 to modern day, but if i get anything in 1/16 it will be modern or close to it. that is if i find that building at a smaller scale is to painful lol

11 series is part of the infantry branch. 11C is a mortarman in the US Army which is why I said indirect fire, but since that's not what it stands for then welcome anyway... :)
