Not so serious..

Not all iin one place or shot. Interesting thought, though.

That is a challenge that non-cat owners may not comprehend. We have 4 cats. We rescue pure black cats. They too show great interest in my tanks, but when I run them they scatter faster than when we run the vacuum. One of them for some crazy reason has taken a liking to clawing and chewing on the clear plastic cellophane bags of bits, as well as hunting it out for his pleasures.

Nice collection. Do you have pictures of all of them posted?

[SoCalBobS]

Another Warhammer potential; how about for when Tongde releases its Churchill?

[SoCalBobS]

Or take off the skirts, add sponsons...

[SoCalBobS]

Wouldn't it be nice if.......hmmm. Say, an M2 Bradley, plenty of bulldozer blades available, a Sturmtiger barrel, a little blue paint and some 3DP accessories. Ah, we can wish. it's not like it has to be "accurate"!




This was my approximately 1/35 scale static model, made by Gamer's Workshop. Gone now, alas

Not a joke or anything, but I wanted to share something that didn't need a whole new topic. I needed some connectors, including some XT60's, because I'm replacing those cursed Tamiya plugs. I found the following on Amazon. They have a ridge to make disconnecting easier and they have shrouds to cover your solder joints, eliminating the need for shrink tubing. The shrouds snap on and can be pried off if necessary.12 pair for $8, a LOT cheaper than our local hobby store. They are called XT60H. I checked, and they are completely interchangeable with the originals.

Yep, thats the ticket...........

[SoCalBobS]

Great suggestion!

So what could r/c modelers make with this? It and similars are on AliExpress. Search Arduino Tank Chassis...

Could use it to make a model of the cybertanks from the old Ogre game by Steve Jackson. Oh, and also of the tanks from a more recent sci-fi novel: Armored Tears by Mark Kalina.

I use those plugs on all my tanks. I think I'm scoring them from Flea Bay or Amazon,.. There great, and yea, Tamiya plugs sux.

Use those as well, quite handy. I actually shoot some hot glue to seal off where the wires pass thru the grey/black push caps.

Correct!

[tank_me]

First is a T34...second looks like a Panther...third is German (probably a King Tiger), and the fourth is an M10 I think.

Just something for fun…identify those sloped sides:

How's about that new group of tankers:
