Yet Another Toy ........

[tmaxxfreek]

Traded with a good friend of mine, i had what he wanted and i never thought i would have so much fun with this, I'm not even sure what it started life as, but it has metal tracks and wheels, a smoker kit,upgraded sound board and shoots airsoft. ran a pack thru it yesterday and had a blast. the dogs love to chase it thru the yard

Sweet I would like to pick up a tank for a reasonable price one day.

I think this one started life as a low cost kit, now it weighs 10 pounds easily. Alot more fun than i thought it would be.

That thing looks awesome, we need a video of it in action!

now it weighs 10 pounds easily.

Dang! I'd like to see a video too and certainly more pictures of it with it's top off.

What scale is that? I've had an Abrams A1 tank project on hold for over a year because I can not find tracks. It's 1/12 scale but the electronics and running gear were toy grade with plastic belt tracks. I did a complete custom paint job on it and stopped 1/2 way through the mechanical build due to lack of tracks.

Here's a CAD design I did for the internals:

I will get the top off and share some photos, unsure of its scale, ill pull the paperwork out and read up on it, i do know this one has no esc's, it had boards that controls the motors,lights,smoker kit and the air soft gun.. Ill try to get the photos up, i will also try and find the supplier of the steel tracks and wheels. Oh and the videos, I'm sure i will enjoy making those

Without counting the gun, mine is 26" from front to rear.
If yours is even close to that I can make those tracks work when I build the drive system.

Actually, give me the width of a track shoe. 2 1/4" is what I'm looking for, or as close to that as I can get.

 

[tmaxxfreek]

the good thing about these tracks are they are adjustable, you can remove sections to make longer or shorter,the tracks A 1 3/4 wide,my tank is only 15 inches without the gun.

Bummer. That means you have either 1/16 or 1/24th scale. From 1 3/4 wide to 2 1/4 would be way to noticeable, but get me some info on what you have.

I have 3 1/6 scale 21st century Stuart m5 tanks
2 run but need a little work other is brand new and just clicks when powered up. I soldered a new diode in that was popped and still does the same thing
and a 1/9 scale Abrams M1A1 all electronics in in a box has to be put together to see if it works I want to get rid of[DOUBLEPOST=1409441959][/DOUBLEPOST]I would really like them to all go together but I may split them up. they are huge so shipping is out of the question
