When I asked him about it he said that the mixes on my 9 would not work for the 6i. It is working like a typical Clark now though. I will put the shurzen on your Hetzer tonight and paint them tomorrow.

Very nice Erik, I can see why you were so excited about getting it. The paint job on it is excellent.

I am extremely happy that you like your Hetzer Erik. I try to be as accurate as possible to the originals within the constraints of our RC use of the models. I like mine very much and really enjoy driving it around and battling at Danville. It is a light tank and the 3 sec. fire is super, but the 3 hit kill means you have to be careful you don't get taken out to fast. I'm still learning on how to do that. Very steep learning curve for me for some reason. I do hope to see some video of it once you get the electronics installed too. Enjoy my friend!

I love my Hetzer by the Magnificent Herman! Battling the devil twins in tandem is really fun and since they both have the same camo, it confuses everybody. haha Mine is number 211 and Herman's is number 213. You'll enjoy yours very much Imex-Erik.

Herman, I know a product of this quality doesn't get made over night, so how long is your waiting list?

Right now I have some other projects that I am working on, so I have to finish them before I can start another Hetzer. When I do start one, it will take me 3 weeks to finish it if I have everything already here. I really hate waiting for parts to arrive. I am NOT an electronics guru, and furnish these as completed rolling hulls. Tracks and electronics are up to the buyer. I will sell parts separately if requested, like the custom sprockets and idlers, la-fete, soukoph, and hubcaps. The sprockets and idlers are set up to fit the Asiatam Hetzer metal tracks by the way.

Herman, are these the tracks you recommend for your Hetzers?
