OK...here is my Pershing.....covered in mud. Which if anyone is interested is paper mache coated in different tones of brown. Panzerpaul

Heng long Pershing using the Upgrade momentum drive board and battle system the DBCRC2! It also allows you to use a hobby radio and I am using the Spectrum DX5e for this tank! No particluar unit, but it is a very good battle tank with many kills and at leat one victory kill!

The Blitz

is that the tamiya pershing?

Tomas, Where are all your clubs and your tank photos?

Great looking Pershing tanks guys.

I have worked on 2 Tamiya Pershings, but never quite know what to do with the weathering finish. I sold off the first tank a few years back and then saw it on ebay earlier this year and was tempted to buy it back, but didn't. So later, I bought and rebuilt a non-operational Pershing, but nicely assembled shelf queen into a good runner. Still researching the finish and I am open to suggestions. Real mud is out, because I like to run them in the house too, volume way up.

Yes...the picture above (with mud) is a Tamiya Pershing. Stuffed to the gills inside as usual. I also have 2 HL Pershings that run, but are not equipped with IR. Here is a picture of one of them. Panzerpaul

John, I can send you some Krim mud in a jar. You can run it in the house, and this particular acc type porridge will never come off. See pic. This stuff ate an all steel geared Type 1 Super Razzle Dazzle TU. Does do a nice mud splattered weathering job though. Muck will also stop a T34 with stock Tu's in about half a meter.

OK,,,, here is my 1st Tamiya M26 Pershing... this one I did an online assembly here on RCU back a few years ago...

Very cool Pershing... since I have sold it and now I have another one! photos of the 2nd one coming later....

So here was my 1st "DUSTY M26" had many a kill in battle! THere is also a photo attached here of it in action at our 1st battlefield before it grew to 6500sqft and grew many,many trees!!!!!!

-CHEERS!

I really need to take newer pics of my stuff. []



Looks like we're going to Danville in September. It's just a little closer of a drive than Texas. Maybe next year?!!

I think i like this Idea. model specific threads. that way you can find info alot faster for what ever model you happen to be working on.

My HL Pershing

Heng Long basis

NOT MY Pershing, but worth showing everyone the amount of work going into this one!!!!

Have any of you guys installed a recoil system in a HL Pershing? I've got one sitting on the shelf waiting for me to finish my PIV and I think recoil will be one of the upgrades I do but I'm not sure what system would be best.

Here are 3 Tamiya f/o Pershings by my friend Tom. He is the guy who got me interested in building rc tanks about 5 years ago. John

Heng Long with a bit of work

very nice........

Yes I have a modified Heng Long recoil in my Pershing

Here's some of mine. Cutaway of a 1;16 HL. My platoon of Pershings; M-26, M-26A1, M-45, Super Pershing and M-46 Patton.

Our USMC M26A1 on patrol in Korea...
