Default Battleday Can-Am R/C Tank Club...

Happy Fathers Day to all! We had our June meet yesterday in the heat but at least no rain! Last year virtually all of our primary dates were rained out. This year 2 for 2 so far!

Here are some pics and a video at the end.

And here are 4 short video's of Michael's Firefly kit 95% done from me, DGS Military Hobby. he put an IBU 2 in it to run with. Still needs a few tweaks but looks good!

Haven't run a tank since March so I'm pretty jealous. Looks like a fun time and the battlefield looks great, the raked grass piles make for some good looking hay piles in the steppe. Thanks for taking the time to take pics and a vid to share.

I didn't get roasted by the sun either!!

The grass piles were FUN, and they were clumpy enough to stay together on tanks for mobile camo. I think it actually worked too.

I don't think we have any footage but I actually got my battlefield pyrotechnics to work... simple paper black powder tubes that went off periodically. Surprised a lot of people

Hey as long as they don't burn down... a grass fire and that x-mas tree going up were fun :P
