By the way, if somebody is at the danvile museum right now, could you please ask them if they ship to europe and how much it would be for a tiny piece? I sent them an email a couple of days ago and got no response so far.

Answers for BennyB: The close quarter combat video images are a let down: the darting back and forth to avoid hits, the past slope defense etc. The Danville IR game has evolved away from realistic scale tank operations (which you guys declared was boring several years back, I do believe) and turned the battles into a gaming style activity purposed to achieving winning max LED hits. Not my cup of tea is all, no big deal.

FYI: I have never labeled my tanks "Danville Tested". Only you have said that.

What I have said is that most of my WWII and Cold War tanks have been purchased by several Danville enthusiasts to use at Danville. A Tiger II, KV-1, Panther G, Jagdpanther, Sherman 105, Pz4J, Leo 1 and others I have long since forgotten. And those models were all built to specs and recommendations by Daryl Turner, information from "Willy's" website and others. Anyway, you are no doubt battling against (or with) Daryl Turner this week, so, take a look at Dr William's new Gepard Flakpanzer that Mr Turner has on display. Anyway, enjoy your weekend and these are just a few of my rc tank builds that have gone on to play at Danville. You can see all the rest of them on my FB pages. FB is a social media thing along with You Tube that you should check out, it will be fun for you!

For further clarification please enjoy this email read:

Etoarmor does ship to EU. US Post shipping is very expensive. Transmissions for EU generally come from Russia, whose Post is good and no where near as expensive as US.

This is the piece im looking for, 1/16 Scale R/C Sherman Die-Cast Metal Idler Wheels but it seems is only at the danvile museum...

That is a part I do not have, but since it has ball bearings I would say get it. I have taken apart the stock Tamiya idler and installed bearings in it to solve the wear problems.

Yep. I wrote them a couple of days ago, I asked them if they ship to europe. No response so far. I imagine they were busy with the tank event.

EDIT: They answered me back. The part is out of stock.
