Really impressed by the quality of the kit, except for the lack of any suspension.

They are very interesting kits. On many occasions I have just about ordered one. The panther and the Sherman are especially appealing to me.

IS there any room to fabricate working suspension???? I guess though in this scale the travel is so little it wouldn't make much difference.

There is no IR option for these is there?????

That might be a project Darkith needs to look at.

They are pricey. Even his very basic kit cost in excess of £100. I could literally have bought 3 HLs with that. But I wanted to build a Tamy and this is a good starter lit.

There's a chap on youtube who converts statics to RC so it's possible.

Ha no. Nothing like that. Just basic drive, rotate turret, elevate gun. The controls are a heck of a lot better than on my VS Tiger though.
