Welcome!

Ditto what everyone else has already said.  I would also go for the 
Jagdtiger.  MUCH simpler.  No turret to mess around with.  A Jagdpanther 
would also be nice!  You may consider the C6C as a first controller.  Very 
simple and quite inexpensive.  Good luck!

2008-12-11 Thread Derek Engelhaupt

I can say for a fact that a turretless build like my Sturmtiger has
TONS of room.  Nice on a first build.  I tried a smallish tank on my
first build attempt...it wound up in the fireplace... ;)  BTW,
www.surpluscenter.com has tons of sprockets and such.  I buy from them
all the time as well as many on the list.

As far as RC stuff, that is the last thing to worry about literally,  
first concerns is motors because that will dictate your hull size,  
then tracks because that will dictate wheel and sprockets.  Others may

Welcome to the group. I too would go with the Jagdtiger. Straight
lines, no turret
will make for a much faster build time and a lot easier on the head
and pocket book.
Best of all it looks really cool. Since you wont have a turret you
will want 0 radius 360
turning capablilty, and porportional speed control would help too, but
thats all easily
upgradeable later as well. Good luck, the building part is more than

Welcome to the hobby.  I've got drawings of the Tiger1 scaled to the
three foot rule if your interested.  Their not that detailed but will
get you started.  Tank T047 (http://rctankcombat.com/tanks/T047/) was
built from them.  With a little modification they could be the basis
for the JagdTiger.

I might clean them up and post them to the files section soon.

A good place to start is the website with the FAQ and how-to  
articles.  My advice would to find a tank you love because you are  
going to be seeing a lot of it!  Both of your picks are great, I love  
the Jagdtiger.  Just make sure you make good use of search on both the  
old site and the google group as well.  Winter is the perfect time to  
get started!

[TANKS] Re: Intro and first Questions

2008-12-11 Thread Chris. b

Hello,
 Build the jagdtiger for sure! mean looking tank.

As for the tracks, the TTS (treadmill) is the way to go, and even
better again is a sprocket driven TTS. Im assuming drawing up a simple
sprocket and making the parts will be no problem for an Architectural
Modeler!

For motors I agree with Doug, it will be hard to find a nicer motor at
that price.

Programming the controllers is the least of your worries, 9/10 times
they come with step by step detailed instructions, simply work through
it and if you get stuck you can always ask the group.

Have a look around www.mcmaster.com most if not every part needed to
build the mechanical workings of a tank, also look at www.robotmarketplace.com,
good site for motors, controllers, all that jazz.

Have a look at my tank www.rctankcombat.com/tanks/T063 , the
suspension I used is quite simple, all the parts are quite cheap too.

Welcome !

Many first-timers build a Tiger 1 (I did). I think it's a fine choice. A
Jagdtiger would be a good choice, too. Nice and large with no turret. Plus,
it's a vehicle the hobby is lacking.

For motors, you should at least consider the M01s offered by Joe at
http://www.anvilus.com/motor01.html. They are reasonably priced and already
have gearing.

Here is a 1/6th humvee, the military one. The body looks accurate, but
it still doesn't look like the real thing because the body is too high
above the wheels. The tires aren't accurate either, but they probably
have better traction than scale tires.

[TANKS] Re: Interesting motor on Ebay

2008-12-11 Thread Chris. b

Fantastic motor, If I had the cash I would buy all 5! I have used
these in my stug which has oodles of torque and heaps of speed. See

Also know as "EV-X" motors, stats here (
