Default RE: Hobby Engine M1 A1 modified Aussie - to the max

There does appear to be some interest in a 1/16 abrams . It would be nice to see one come out , that requires less modification and has decent electronics. OH , by the way my friend is going to use elmod in this tank. Under the turret it has a system of photo etched rings, to make electrical contact between turret and hull . This makes the turret free to spin with no tangles. He has made his own decals, the ration boxes are simply a picture printed on thin card and folded.Someone said he would have some things to share and I believe thats true , if I can only get him here.Some things he's done seem so difficult but I know they werent, nor were they expensive. The Hobby Engine tank is a good basis for a start, but to get all the way takes time and lots of modifying. Not for the begginer.
