Hi folks,

has anyone got an idea where I can get plans for a Scorpion please cos I would like to build one? I can get dimensions of the net but plans would be better.

Is there an HL tank that I could use the chassis and mod it then scratch build the top.

So many questions and the New Year has only just begun........

Cheers Mike

Hi Have these hope you can use them

regards pete

Hi Pete,

they look great...just the job. I have never seen one so I supose there are none on the market cos I dont want to wast my time making somethging that exists.

All the best for 2010

micky i have the 1/35 afv kit so if you need sizes give me a shout

Hi These things used to do 70mph so you will have to work on the gearing and the tracks.V12 engine out of the E-type Jaguar


regards pete

here is a picture of the RAF Regiment Scorpion that is preserved at the RAF Cosford museum

Mike,

I have one on display about 100 yards from my office so if you need any photos let me know.

hi there wargar

i got the HMforces light tank from tesco for a christmas present .. its about 1/8 ish .. need a lot of work but the hl buldog and sprocket with gbox fix with a bit of cutting and the bully track look good too .. will post pcs at the weekend

the hmf tank pritty good not 1/16 but when its running realy looks great !

Many thanks lads.

I will buy a kit to get info on the fittings etc and the diagram with dimensions is just great.

Has anyone got any ideas on which wheels and sprockets I could use please?

Mike

just a thought .. rocket may be able to advise here

the ultimate soldire ? 1/18th m113a2 rc armourd personel carrier .. has the same general wheel arangement

certainly the road wheels look very close /// it may be juat a blag ro get a good lookingg set of sproceks and track to do the job ...
the rest should be fairly simple to scratch build ... the only fly maybe the htches as there a slight dome in the middle of each

best of luck
