[TANKS] Re: size
At whatever scale you will have plenty of room in a Tiger1 to fit your items. What you need to ask yourself is what you can comfortably transport? If all you have is a hatchback then a 1:6 scale Tiger would be difficult to move around. Personally I'd go with 1:7 or better yet, scale it down to 3' like tanks 001, 007, 021, 030, 032, and 047.

[TANKS] Re: size
I think everyone who's made a Tiger has made is 1/6th scale. If you make it 1/6th scale it will also be easier to make, due to the larger components and you will be able fit your electronics, marker and ammo in easier. -Gregory On Mon, Oct 26, 2009 at 11:38 AM, Clark Ward Jr ki4...@gmail.com wrote: 1/6!!!

Wrong, Sorry the first Tiger was built to 36. I picked up two Tigers today and Frank's is a lot smaller then Doug Conn's.
