Unfortunately, this project has been put on long term hold. It turns out the tracks suffer zinc rot and are no longer usable. If anyone knows where I can lay hands on a set of 1/6 scale Panther tracks w/sprockets, now would be the time to say so! :)

    • @garyhoff2178
      @garyhoff2178 Před 26 dny

      Sorry for the delay. The tracks that came with the kit aren't good for RC and are intended to be glued. Not sure why this one is like that, Lorenzo Jalbert did one but his tracks had metal pins, and I think the kit came like that, but I could be wrong about that part. Until I can locate suitable tracks the project is on hold. Trying to get the Mercedes 540K upgraded, but real life keeps getting in the way.

    • @Cormano980
      @Cormano980 Před 26 dny

      @garyhoff2178 yeah, the kit form has those static tracks, the one I've got came already assembled with full pin tracks and are workable, however they're still not suited for rc One idea is to reinforce them with metal strips like some guy did on CZcams, or get the metal ones from Giesswerk in Germany, but they cost about 1200€ without shipping and taxes My way of doing it, it's probably gonna be by somehow inserting a bicycle chain through the tracks, masking it and reinforce the tracks with steel strips, only keeping the plastic part for design purposes, that when I will somehow have the patience and time for such a crazy endeavour The stock ones will simply not do, not after adding motors, batteries and whatnot, first contact with grass and dirt will definitely snap them

    • @garyhoff2178
      @garyhoff2178 Před 4 měsíci

      I've never converted one of those, and don't know of any instructional videos from anyone who has, but I've heard it's ben done using a Losi 1/24 rc crawler for running gear. There are 1/12 scale rtr rc jeeps, but as far as I know no one has come out with an rc jeep in 1/16. I think WCP Models was working on one, but it might be a custom order deal, so I would suggest you contact them. Go back to my home page and scroll down and there's a link to WCP Models, where you can use the "contact us" button.

    Has anyone ever had any luck upgrading the airsoft units to get more range/flatter trajectories? These are essentially low priced airsoft guns from the early 2000s refited for tanks, and airsoft has advanced in leaps and bounce since then. Im working to make the bb tanks more viable for playing with eachother

    • @garyhoff2178
      @garyhoff2178 Před 5 měsíci

      I've seen them made stronger two different ways, a couple of guys have gone over to a CO2 system, and some guys have simply installed stronger springs. Most people won't shoot at other tanks. We put a lot of time and money into these tanks and we don't want the little bits being knocked off by an airsoft BB or a paintball. There's also a trick for popping balloons, you take a Q-tip with a wooden shaft, cut off one swab and sharpen it in a pencil sharpener and then load them one at a time into the barrel. I've got a video of that trick around here somewhere. A little bit of baby powder in the end of the barrel also gives a pretty cool effect.

    Cool, love this bro. Just bought some track and adding an oval of this stuff to an around the room style 1/32 scale train layout.

Have bought two 1/32 scale cars and one 1/24 scale car, the details are awesome, good stuff here from Carrera, enjoy!

  • @garyhoff2178

    First you need the self-centering lever and the Spring. If you already have those, then the procedure is the same as for the i6, and i'm pretty sure I have a video of that around here somewhere.

    Been awhile but hopefully you can help, pretty sure my battery is not charging now, I replaced it so I assume it's the charger. How does the 3S Lipo you mention hook up with the connectors it comes with? Or did you change that so it could run off of it?

    • @garyhoff2178

      I changed the connector on the tank to an XT-60.

    Gary, you've done some great work with all your RC Vehicles. Why don't you try to put all your videos in playlists? You could have a playlist for each Tank or Soft Skin vehicles as you work on them and do upgrades to them. You could also have playlists for each complete build from start to finish. I started to create some playlist of my videos, but I have a lot more to organize all of them. It's just an idea, but it makes it easier for someone who wants to see all your videos of a specific vehicle without having to scroll through all your videos to watch the next part. Thanks for sharing all your work here for everyone to see.

      For me youtube is just a third party host so I can post the videos at RCU. I seem to recall you're a member there so you may have seen my build threads. I try to get folks to visit RCU whenever I can (promoting the hobby, dontcha know) so I want people to see the videos there. I suppose I could make them unlisted here but it seems like more potential RC Tankers will see them if they're here as well, but RCU is the main focus. For anyone that's not already a member, here's a link to RCU www.rcuniverse.com/forum/rc-tanks-369/ so if you want to see cool RC tanks that's the place to be. There are guys there that make me look like an amateur, so if you're into RC tanks you should check it out. My screen names there are Max-U52 and Crius. Why I have two screen names is a story for another time :)
