I am seriously considering getting 3 KVs and giving it a shot but there are a lot of issues with it.

You would have to power something that weighed at least 5 times the original weight (3 tanks plus the reinforcing to stop it twisting)

with the sheer amount of track in contact it wouldnt steer

Getting all 5 guns to work independantly

Would be awesome to do if you have the time
