Sounds like an interesting battle coming up to close out the season..

And a bushel is not a weight measurement, even in Jersey. Working on the hopper this week. Looks like we'll be operational on the 29th.

[TANKS] Gettysburg Address?
What is the address of the Oct 29 battle in Gettysburg? Is it at a park or at a private field? Is there either an address or a landmark I can use to find it on Google Earth?

RE: [TANKS] Panzer II 1/6 by Dragon
Hi David, I bought it on ebay, the seller is 12inchmonkee. It was a nice transaction with a quick shipping. When buying on ebay you always better check the seller history, in this case he did over 400 transaction with a satisfaction rating of 100%, it help to avoid doing risky business. As for this tank, I have not glue a single piece yet but I am very impress by the thoughness of it, the plastic pieces are think and strong, more than I was wishing even, in the end it might be possible to place some motors in it, but I better stop speculate as I still have not look at all the details, and I have a panzer III in steel to do the painball fight...if ever there is one ennemy tank in view.

[TANKS] Re: Model T Experiment
Another comment on Frank's question (1) on a minimal tank. A couple of data points on what is a proven minimal size for a tracked vehicle that can (a) operate on outdoor terrain, and (b) carry a payload such as a paintball gun: 1. www.superdroidrobots.com - The LT Tracked ATR robot kit. L = 26" W = 14" Ground clearance looks about 2" Measured amperage draw for a pivot turn in tall grass, 15 amps 2. www.robotshop.com - Dr. Robot Jaguar tracked mobile platform L = 25" W = 18.5" H = 7" weight = 30 lbs LiPo batteries These products indicate that "free-form" tracked vehicles for carrying paintball guns could be significantly smaller in size, weight, power, and cost than most of the 1/6 scale model tanks that have been built (Panzer II possibly excepted?). -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
