Default RE: CENTURION !!!!!

Thanks to all for the kind comments ..........

I spent every day in the month of April on this tank. One of them was a 14 hour day. The others were just 8 or 10 hours worth of fooling around with it. Considering the mistakes I made that had to be done over, I feel like I built it twice. I received the r/c gear that I needed last week, thanks to a fellow Kellys Heroes club member who did some spring cleaning from his stash. It will at least get to be a basic runner with turret rotation. I have a plan for a drive unit that will resemble the real thing. It will be some gears in a housing on the outside of the body at the rear. The rear axle inside is too close to the lower hull walls to have clearance for the tranny gears. It a project that really interests me.
