This is obviously your pride and joy, and a fanstastic beast it is too.
Was that a 'real blank' it fired, or was there any physical projectile? !!

Have you ever thought of changing it from electric with synthesised sounds, to actually fuel powered?
How about a 100cc Conley V8 - that should get the tank moving nicely? !! :devil:

 

[hatakashi]

heheheh thanks for yoru compliment mate.
it fires "pyrotechnics", a blank gun could be fitted if one so wanted.

And it is possible to fit a real diesel/petrol engine in, the biggest problem is...the engine noise.

 

[Croozer]

Very nice.

I love the size of the bugs when you went through the bush haha. awesome

 

[MrUnlimited]

That is a MASSIVE tank. What engine does it move?

 

[dwarfy]

What run time do you get out of it mate? It would be a bummer if the battery went flat in the field - not as if you can pick it up & carry it back to the van

 

[pipeous]

Probably has an rc support vehicle to bring extra batteries. duece and a half

 

[bulletpoof]

:0 wow thants big you must take all the room up in a garage jus for the tank lol nice detail work on the tank

 

[hatakashi]

It's powered by two 500w 24V motors and run time is around 2.5 hrs.
2.5 hrs is normally enough for an afternoon out but if the batteries go flat...I might have to disconnect the tracks and push the tank back

Can you take a pic of it next to a person. It would make it easier to see the size of it. It's so realistic, it's hard to tell!

 

[hatakashi]

Of course, here're two photos of my old man working on it, I couldn't believe I managed to drag him into this "hobby" as well

 

[Trip]

To quote a line from Deuce Bigalow... That's a huge female dog!

That really is a monster!
