Good on Coolbank! Another nice, less common tank addition and British!
That thing is hatch city and the surface detail seems to have more finesse than the Stuart.
Looks like another speedster along the lines of the M5A1.
Hello Mr. Coolbank Wang,
Please slow down your tanks with better gearboxes. Kids won't be buying a Crusader, they'll buy a Tiger 1 or Abrams they can drift around the kitchen. Save the speed for them.
Respectfully,
Mike.

I drool, but, I, too, second ColemanCollector's request to slow it down a bit.

Looks good, and the tracks may be very useful for other projects.
I think the front track guards need some adjustments, otherwise can anyone see anything that needs changing?

I think the gearboxes are great! Mini pdsgb all the way. I've found in "slow" drive mode it's very controllable and can get a scale crawl just fine

"In 'slow' drive mode it's very controllable and can get a scale crawl just fine." Great news! How do you and Kaczor so quickly get access to these tanks?

I don't own it, I just linked the video
It is supposed to be on sale in two months.

Captain Tom Hugill, however, seems to have been able to try one at " 'slow' drive mode."
