[TANKS] Discovery Channel
I was recently contacted by a producer at the Canadian Discovery Channel who would like to do a "short doc" on R/C tank combat sometime in the next 6 months. Naturally, as a Canadian crew they are interested in filming some of their countrymen in the hobby. So, if you're Canadian and would like to participate, please send me your contact information privately (email address, telephone number and address) and I'll forward the list to them. We have also made tentative plans for them to come to Maryland in the spring to film one of our battles and to get some "color" interviews with some of our more notable members. The producer's great uncle destroyed a T-34 with a magnetic mine in 1944, so he is especially interested in seeing the Tiger vs. the T-34 on the battlefield. He was disheartened to hear that Mr. Tyng no longer owns the T-34, but I told him we might be able to dig it out of mothballs for the filming. He is also very interested in mounting a variety of cameras to the tanks (turret mounted, rear mounted, side mounted, etc) to get plenty of live action shots to go with the hand-held and tri-pod shots. I told him that we'd mount whatever brackets he needs for the larger cameras directly to the tank hull ... after explaining just how big these things really are. More news as the discussions progress. Frank "Lights, Camera, Action" Pittelli -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.

Re: [TANKS] Re: 1:6 all up weight?
I weighed the KV-2 hull which included the drive train, motors, and front sprockets/shafts yesterday. It weighed in at 75lbs. Add 26lbs. for batteries, 15lbs. for the turret and innards, another 26lbs. for tracks, and like another 15lbs. for wheels/hardware should put it up in the 150lb. range.

Re: [TANKS] Cutting PVC sheet
I use all my standard woodworking tools including my table saw to cut it. I would guess that you would want to use the higher speed. The faster you make the cut, the less it will melt. The longer the plastic is exposed to the hot blade, the more it will melt. The only time I've had any issues with melting while working with it is when I was using my Dewalt roto tool to cut circles or holes using cone type bits. Spade drill bits don't seem to cause any issues with melting for me. Standard drill bits do melt the plastic somewhat and the larger the bit, the more of an issue it is.
