    OMG!!! David, that's an amazing RC 3DP M8 Greyhound!!! Are the tire/wheels 3DP as well, or what and where did Carlos get them??? That's what I want for my M8. Yes, the kit is very fragile, but I'll be extra careful with it when I get it running not to crash into anything!!! It's great to have talented friends who can help us out, isn't it?

    First time messing around with ChatGPT. Asked for a Mad Max style. Not the same as running them, and taking proper photos. But a bit of fun.

    Here's a couple of image of the M8 mocked up with the differentials, I started on the frame after these images. I have a lot of time into this conversion. Note the incorrect tire/wheel combo; it's not what I wanted, but it is what it is, as they say!!! Due to the tire/wheel combo, this M8 most likely will not have the fenders, which is something else I'm not too happy about!!!!

    The original. I've long since removed the winter tracks. They are completely unsuitable in grass, leaves, or anything that is liable to be caught in them.

    Here's a couple videos of my 1/6 21st Century Toys M5 Stuart. I put a lot of time into it, from adding ball rearing to the road wheels, and lots of modifications to take it out of the Childs Toy Zone to the Adults Full Function RC Tank Zone. It also has a 360 Turret, an Airsoft Cannon, servo elevation, and recoil. I still have a few minor details I'd like to upgrade, but I don't want to put a lot of money into it. East Coast Armory has highly detailed Head Lights, Siren, and the Turret Light, but the cost on those items is more than I want to spend. Yes, they look great, but they're fragile. Anyway, it's a far cry from what it was!!!

    A couple of these videos are long, so speed up the video, or scroll through and watch parts of the video. Oh, I have a what if modification I could do on an extra M5 I have, I think you'll like that one!!!
