PL 09, That`s a beauty. Was that a kit you built or did it come assembled?The weathering job is no less than perfect.Have always wanteda Jagpanzer
elephant but at their cost I`ll have to keep dreaming.

pl 09, You did a great job on constructingand weathering it.The rc conversionmakes it even more desireable.Your knowledge of electo-mechanical
stuff married to a static model really paid off.Again,great job.

That is a nice, and impressive, job

I appreciate the effort that went into it.

Un fortunately, my skills are suchthaty I will have to wait for HL to bring out a 1/16 scal Elefant, but I doubt that will be soon.

This 1/35 scale stuff is always intriguing to me. It seems so well suited for what Shenlonco is doing with the 1/24 scale. I bought the WSN 1/35 Leopard and Abrams, and they are fun. You guys who are into this really amaze me with how well you get these little guys to function. I raced out and bought a couple of 1/35 scale tanks with the hopes of getting into this. One was a T72 though, and man is the turret small on that. The projects fell off the rails and remain unstarted. My hats off to you for doing such great work in such a small scale.

Hello pL_09

Nice build, would you be willing to show us the details of the interior of your 1/35 Jagdpanzer Elefant. I would like to do the same thing to my 1/35.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Thanks pl_09

It has been sealed up ( battery box is accessible from outside at tank bottom). Standard twin-motor gear box kit from Tamiya & RC board from toy RC toy were used. You can check out my various Youtube tank videos ( Panzer lV, simplest conversion, KV-1, etc ) for how to & even some questions & answers.
