Lofty592 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 A good while ago I found a website where the members built 1/6th scale tanks from plywood etc. and fitted paint ball firing mechanism in the turrets and had tank battles with them. 1/6th scale is too big for me, so I built one at 1/12th scale instead and here are some pics of the build.

Lofty592 Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Look on Ebay for Heng Long r/c Tanks, These drive sprockets are for a Walker Bulldog, and the gearboxes are also Heng Long make, I used the long shaft version. Hope that helps, let me know if you want further help. Kind regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
