Thanks,


It can run pretty fast but I only use that power to get over the battlefield hills and obstacles. If I were to dial down the max speed, she would not have the power to climb.Now, If I could only afford the electronics to make here battle ready.

AEC is borrowing the Shermans electronics and TBU for a battleday on the 25th of March. You can all blame KSOC for getting me to tear up the Sherman. Lots of wires to fit in such a small space. Reminds me of the old RC submarine days.
Cant wait to see how it does.


Pictures Tomorrow.

I guess if I don't want tire marks on the top of my tank, I better battle on the Allied side next battle

See you on the 25th

Let see how it runs first. Got all of the electronics to fit inside. Very little room for the speaker or any sort of box to make the sounds stronger. I will play with that over the weekend.
It does however, take hits and fire shots now.



And the Tamiya Pershing owners think their tanks are tight:

AEC now has Full Option Tamiya electronics. I plan on running it this Sunday at our battlefield. Weight is becoming an issue so the car sits a bit low. Should be able to drive circles around the other traditional tanks.
Used my Sherman electronics and installed deans connectors where needed. I can now swap electronics between vehicles in about 15 minuites.


Look out guys.........

Lots of sizes with a positive solder on connection. (No crimping) Use them on all my submarine connections. Even wet conditions.
