It is a remarkable Model Green Amphib' . having seen your piccies over at RCGroups was pretty much what inspired me to try the LVT build
Thanks for sharing them.

Thanks Nick,
I think I have figured out how to set up my innards on the LVT4. The batteries will fit under the cargo floor and there should be enough room to put the Gears, ESC's, and Rx. in the front with a bit of finagling. I'll know more in a few days when I get a chance to work on it some more. Have a good day!

I used my issued manuals from when I was stationed with them in the USMC back in the early 80's. I had always wanted to make one, but didn't have the opportunity until recently.

Hello Rob,

I will be posting pictures of my newest attempt at building a WWII LVT 4 as used by the Marines in the Pacific AO. It is going to be the troop/cargo version and similar to the ones that littletankman and nickmow are building as shown in this forum. They are building the armored version.
