Very nice, although your tracks looked like they stuck to the rear drive sprocket a hit when reversing.
Very nice though!
Do you have fans installed on the smoke genys?

Yep I agree on the tracks has it got track ajusters on it the only other thing is the gun barrel has a bit of bounce in it when it was going over the bumps! Other than that a top tank!!!

Re: My 1/6 Challenger 2 Tank on my local comman
With reference to the tracks, on this type of modern tank with rear sprocket drive, when you reverse the one track then even on the full size this happens to a degree. The tracks were new in this video and I have adjusted them since but you still get it to a degree. I used to have a 1/16 Tamiya Leopard and this was exactly the same...

Fair enough, just thought I'd point it out.
Awesome looking tank though, how much did that set you back?
