Really unique, OW.

Another centurion run

I gave up on the cam trailer for now and mounted the camera on one of the tanks. This gave a much more stable platform, eliminating most of the vibration problem. As with the previous video, both tanks are controlled by one transmitter. My right hand controls the lead tank and my left hand controls the rear tank. Still learning how to do this. My only significant error on this run was right after the firing sequence. I accidentally started the lead tank at the higher speed setting, so it jack-rabbited a bit. I hope to soon start pitting the two tanks against something that shoots back. I also need to tighten up the mount for the rear tanks IR battle receiver.

FYI, this camo netting is available on various sites. Mine came from Germany, but Toucan sells it for half the price. It's just draped, not attached in any way other than snagging on protrusions, otherwise it would have to be glued, which I won't do. One has to be careful that the netting doesn't catch on the treads or when the turret rotates. It's...ok, but I wouldn't get a lot of it.

I'm sorry Bob I'm confused I don't see any camo netting. But I'd like to. I've made my own before but I'd like to see what is available.

Excellent, yes my wife told me you posted up some videos recently. I didn't get to watch them yet.

Here's a solid question. Which Bone stock tanks do best on your torture course? And which tanks do best with minimal modifications?

Better still which modern tanks do best stock and lightly modded? You may have shared this in the past but I forgot the answer and where you posted your answer..

I can answer that but I don't think the photo thread is the right place to do so. Shoot me a PM and I will be happy to give you my .02 on the topic.

These two are screen shots from my trials/test course filmed during the T&E phase of the M60. I have the actual videos posted on my Instagram @ fsttanks.

Rubicon99 these are freakin AWESOME action shots!

How are you taking them? Are they screenshots from video or is someone helping you operate or take picx?

Bone stock Heng Long P:anzer Grey. I used this Magic Grime to weather it. That is it. Super easy.
