I removed hole from engine hatch (like on tiger prototype). I also added new elements and removed fuel holes because i must remodel them.


Ehasut pipes were rotated to angle characteristic for 502 batalion

Great build thread you have going. Your Tiger is looking fantastic. Just how did you get the holes into the track teeth? They look pretty cool. Do you think they will stand up to ir combat operations?

Thanks for sharing .

Jim

Hi Jim.

Thx. Holes in track - I started with two drills broken. Next i discovered that skewer works better for me. Tracks shouldn't be weaker with holes but i can't check it during ir combat( I don't have rc radio yet and i don;t know people in Poland who have rc tanks). I hope that one day this hobby will be more popular in my country.

Yeah, back the lamp head with foil that you bake with and the light will be much brighter. But, I don't use lights and wouldn't want the lamps to be much brighter (on a tank) in real life anyway.

I do like those Notek lamps ... now those would look cool illuminated.

Great build so far. I have always loved the Initial Tigers. Does the 502nd one you are doing have the front mud-guards? If so have you found a suitable material for them yet? i have a Tamiya Tiger I and would love to do a Pz.Abt501 Tunisia Initial but I cannot find any material that captures the look of the waffle style front flaps.

Looking forward to your next update!

Yes, my tank will have front mudgards. Check Aber site. They have "wafle style" material that i want use to build them. I am waiting for your DAK Tiger build thread.

It may be some time before I get the Tunisian Initial going because my King Tiger just seems to take longer and longer to finish! Thanks foir the Aber tip... that at least removes one piece to find.

Loving your proeject and making lots of notes on the mods I will need to make.

I started with electoronic. Below remote start and shutdown. And inertia simulation test:
