Hi, My name is Dickson in Hong Kong. I have four Tamiya RC tanks (Tiger1, M26 Pershing, M4 Sherman and a Leopard2a6). Three of them are over 20 years old. I decide to get M1A2 coming soon. I have
finished two conversion projects recently. ( Tiger1 from early production to mid production the M4 105 howitzer to M4a3e8). On the other side Leopard2a6 to A7 plus is on going and find a recoil action problem. I hope some experienced persons can lend me a hand.

Welcome! from a long way away in the northern US. Your introduction shows that you know what you are doing, and I am sure you will receive all kinds of suggestions here on RCTW.
I imagine huge hobby stores in Hong Kong with dazzling displays of all kinds of models, RC models, and so much more. Am I correct?

Herr Dr. Professor, you are right. There are many model shops in Hong Kong.

Welcome to the forum DTKK
Pictures of your conversions would be very welcome
Enjoy the forum, and hopefully someone Tamiya knowledgeable will be along to help you with your recoil problem.

Welcome to the forum. I built a 2A 7+ from a Taigen model. I used a Clark recoil system.
