Default RE: Tiger in the grass

Hi YHR and Karel,

My HE/HL M1A2 only does have SS gbox, coz I reckoned having a brass 3:1 gbox would make this really crawl. At ~9.7 kg, it still runs and pivots on grass. The only downside though is that it can only reach a top speed of 25 +/- 2 kph (back calculated true speed). Too slow for a gas turbine powered beast.

Any ideas guys, aside from El Mod migration to allow for higher voltage and/or better motors without shedding off weight?
