This is the reason FOA spent months to design a MPSS system that works and is 
adjustable

Steve Tyng TTS also has a simple design

For a system that is $500, that's worth about 25 hours of someone's time? If 
considering that hardware is free! http://www.google.com/patents/US20150197133 

But this group is full of ingenious people... And our own time is free fun!

 I'm afraid my tank is in a sorry state right now. I replaced the drive
 motors and transmission, which are working great, but the tracks need work
 and the turret needs all the systems replaced. Also need to reattach the
 fender that Frank broke off last year. Other than that though, the Locust

Heh, hear you on the the suspension. Same way with my Locust. I wanted to 
do suspension, but when I got down to actually implementing it I said 
"forget it!" and went with solid axles. I didn't really want to do it, but 
I got on the battlefield much faster. And my tank can still tear it up with 
the best of them even though it doesn't have suspension. ;)

Work and life has kept me from moving forward on my jagdtiger. I am ready
for assembly of the lower hull but I am stuck on the suspension; I'm just
not sure how to make it look right and function properly. I think I would
just say the heck with it and go solid axels if it wasn't so big. My new
garage is in and my workbench almost completed; I hope to make some major
progress over the next month.
