RE: King Tiger
 

Looking really good stern,

A little off topic but, how many battery packs are needed to run the Tamiya FO KT?

RE: King Tiger
 

Thanks a lot !!!

Well, I use a 2700 pack - but you can built it as you like, because Tamy is using 7.2 V ... (just take care and a look in this thread if you use a 6.2 V smoke maker ;) ... )

I look forward to continuing to witness your advancement, and ultimately the completion, of your masterpiece.

Cheers :) Mario

RE: King Tiger
 

Stern always a pleasure to catch up on this thread some great detail going into this tiger2.
cant wait for the finished pictures [sm=thumbup.gif]

RE: King Tiger
 

Stern,
I just read through this entire thread. All 13 pages. Every single picture posted is from a distance of no greater than 6 inches. Will you move 2 feet back and show us what this beast looks like?:D

RE: King Tiger
 

Thank you very, very much !

Perry - NO :D ... there must be a little excitement and motivation till all details that a Tiger II had are on mine too - then I will take pictures of the whole tank - but first things first :)

Moving forward ...
