RE: Looking for 1/18 Tank Parts Source
I haven't seen this post in a while. I have sent George a PM. I may have some parts for him. I am confident he could convert both his tanks.

RE: Flakzwilling 3.7cm auf panzerkampfwagen Panther.
I have RC'd about 4 of the 1/18th Panthers. It's quite easy. the only issue is you will use the sprockets an tracks off a 1/16th Panther (you can't really tell the scale difference though. Turret traverse is quite easy as well. I would think gun elevation would not be a problem to jerry rig. It would be aweseome to see syncronize gun recoil and flash/cannon sound alternating between the two barrels.

RE: Attention CAN-AM Members
I guess I am asking as I have some VERY heavy tanks and if the 480 provide more torque (not concerned about speed) that would be better. I already use the 400's and they are great for the 3:1. I am just wondering if the 480 are better at providing more torque over the 400.

RE: Attention CAN-AM Members

RE: Achtung Panzer Commanders....be afraid.........BE VERY AFRAID!
Oh you have to RC it. I'm sure there are plenty of others out there who would love to see that thing crawl across the battlefield. (Just Do It!) - lol

RE: Heng Long Panther II Tank Destroyer
That's a neat Goofy. Too bad that type of tank destroyer wasn't built. It would have scared the crap out of the Germans.

RE: HL King Tiger Report, Glen B
Glen, Looks good. May I suggest you give it a little weathering. It's easy and it will make the world of difference in how the end product looks.

RE: Panther G In East Front Colors/Markings?
Hey Glen. I still have that Grey Panther you test drove if you are looking to buy one. I don't think there is a Hobby show this year. I also have all those Tank books you can reference. I'm sure you can find a camo scheme in there that you would like.

RE: May 21st CAN-AM Battleday
Tim, I was going to try to make it for a bit tomorrow but my daughter has 3 soccer games in Lincoln (tournament) so it looks like I won't be able to make it (rain or shine) I was hoping to get one of my tanks hooked up with that new unit. I hope we can do it another time. How about we reshedule for next week :) John
