RE: magazine
There was also a magazine called On The Battlefront back in 2003 that was dedicated to 1/16 tanks. It was a publication of MACV.....Michiana Armored Combat Vehicles. It only ran for 4 issues, and was really interesting, at least to me. I was going to write an article about my Stuart build, but it stopped due to lack of circulation and their advertisers didn't work out. At least that's my understanding. There is still a website for MACV, but it hasn't been brought up to date for years.
Also, there was (still is?) an incredible magazine called RC World that was published in Japan in 2000, and is in Japanese. I have an issue of it and the magazine is 3/8 of an inch thick. It is full of stories and advertisements about RC models that have never been available in the US. A writer/photographer from Japan did an article that appears in that issue about the 1999 BAT battleday in San Jose, and the Jacques Littlefield collection.
