henlong sherman to m10 tank destroyer conversion
Posted: Fri Feb 06, 2026 8:02 pm
So... The idea I ran with herenwas to us an RC Sherman lower hull complete from henlong and an m10 tank destroyer model in 1/16 from Andy's Hobby's. I really wanted the interior to be included in this as well.
Basically I removed the upper hull from the Sherman and started to lay out everything... I cannot emphasize enough to test fit it all as you go. I was able to relocate the main board and the speakers to the back of the vehicle section. I had to lengthen some wires there. I did this so I could fit the interior parts I had.
I planed the on off switch under the drivers hatch, the turret rotation device I plan to place the assistant hatch.
The turret ring is LARGE like big gear needed so I am waiting on that for mail call.
Here is some pics so far....
