the kt out hunting

Post by boxerdog »

just a couple of shots of the kt out hunting, i hope to add some more photos over the next few days, i found this place near me that used to be used by kids on their bikes, lots of dirt mounds ect, perfect battle ground, im taking a few tanks down there in the week now i know its great for running them, cant beleive the power that tamiya kt has, doesnt struggle up any hills on things in its path.... realy need some metal tracks for it
cant wait to take the pershing there and see how good that runs :thumbup:

I feel you, that is a nice KT. Mine is close to running,at least the Henschel is. Do the plastic tracks slide alot? How about your weight have you added any extra weight, like tire weights? My Tiger will pull up just about anything, hills that you would think are to step, 20lb+ extra weight is stacked in the turret base and the turret keeping the weight center and creating a bigger load foot print.Also over the tracks stacked on the inner fenders. The tracks are metal though and that does make a big difference. Post so climbing pics if you can,I'm sure it's difficult to drive and photograph at the same time. I am going to put the wheel weights over the fendors on my KT as well. cheers Blake

she's doing well, just greased up the gearboxes ect ready to take out tonight to another place ive seen, it does well on them plastic tracks, but i feel it would benifit having metal tracks on adding a little more weight,
