Hi All,
I was told off as my first post was a question not to introduce myself
I live in Crawley, Sussx UK.
My main passion is building and flying scale radio controlled aircraft but since I was a small boy (A very long time ago) I wanted a Tank havng seen them at the Model engineering exibition that I went to with my father.
I now have a 4 year old grandson who loves farm tractor, building machinery and anything with tracks.
So I felt now have the ideal opportunity to finnaly get a Tank with out getting the LOOK from her-in-doors
He's not keen on the fact it shoots and can be a bit rough with the controls but he is getting there.
I hope this is sufficent of an introduction.
Stuart.

No offence taken. I should have done it as it dose come up on the first screen.
I had the voice of my grandson in my head "Grandad why dose it stop after it goes Bang"
