I bumped into this vid....Is it me or sound sounds a bit weird.

Sounds like my Great Wall Hover after a long, hard drive.

BTW, you'll find a ton of movie & TV downloads on Youku & other sites.

That whining sounds awfully familiar to the whine my Tiger makes when I lightly throttle up but not enough to make the tank move. Does it have variable speed or is he just gunning through the video?

Hope that's not your tank he's putting through a durability test! lol

The thing is, the TURBINE is ALWAYS spooled up, there is no throttle increase or decrease which is what they seem to be trying to recreat.

Soulfly3

good to know.....thanks!!!

BiggTony

I love the suspension on it, that's for sure. I think I've watched that video 10 times so far.

Soulfly, when you finally get that tank and open it up, I'd love to know how they made configured a 360 rotation on the tank! Post the picks on your clean up and project!

Ouch on the sound, but the suspension is amazing!

Here's a sound of an Abrams engine.

Soulfly, the link isn't working! lol You must have outside viewers blocked.

Soulfly3

BiggTony

Alrighty, the bottom link worked, thanks!

Damn, I like how they set that up.
Now how would Mcguyver fabricate that center ribbon contact and coil.

LOL!!! It does sometimes, don't it?

Damn is that turret motor huge!! Is that really necessary? Holy toledo! The turret must be pretty darn heavy alone.

that guy changed his esc and was having problems. Some kind of interference. Ge got it fix. That was one for the early models....they have made some changes since. they now give you the options of using regulars screws or hex screws. they now come with a 2.4ghz radio instead of the FM. little things like that.

I still want one, along with the T-55, Somebody PLEASE make me some G#% D*%& Modern Armor.

Soulfly3

I think you and I have the same taste in tanks.....I want a T-72 and a T-90......but that T-55 will hold me down after a few mods.

Chester told me that they wanted to release a king Tiger in an all metal version.....I told him screw that....make a T-72 or a T-90. There is enough 1/16 scale king tigers.....let alone all the WW2 tanks. Then the light turned on.

Let's see what happens.
