I sent back my TK-40 boards in my two good tanks... (Mainly because I forgot about this meetup...)
My work bench is currently filled with no less than 4 RC projects on the go. (Includes a SCX10 rebuild, and a M41 recoil system in those).

It is my lot in life to fix stuff, which is fine, I like fixing stuff... I also keep looking for better efficiency in assembly, Hence why my KV-1 has been gutted upper and lower hull 2 times since I have owned it... Never ending upgrades and tweaking...

Repairing Norma's King Tiger for This Saturday.


As mentioned previously I received the Asiatam road wheel suspension arms from Malaysia and with some adjustments installed them on Norma's HL KT. Had to grind a flat on the threaded shoulder screws so as to lock them with the set screw.

I had also replaced the damaged brass gears with Ultimate Pro II steel gear box from HL. This included an upgraded high performance HL black motor. WOW, made it fly like Russel's early tiger.

Nov 2  Battle Day Img_2021

So to make use of the increased motor speed I added a reduction gear train to slow it down but with enough torque to climb out of any ditch.


Nov 2  Battle Day Img_2026


Nuts! Needs another 8 mm to fit the upper hull.
OK back to the drawing board,and the blue motors that came with the gear box. Ran well.


So better check out why the recoil was not working. Stripped it down only to find the Clark recoil actuator that attaches to the barrel had broken off. I replaced it with the one from my Challenger.

Reassembled and still not working. I tested the Clark board with a new relay...nothin. 
Guess it will run without recoil for now.

PS : I was successful in repairing the damaged Hedge hogs from last battle day along with many wounded " men".

Nov 2  Battle Day Img_2022

All this time I was wondering ", this must be what it's like in Big Mike's world fix,fix fix ".

Schnitzel will be hot and good though.

The plan was for an outdoor meet. Had hoped for some of last week's weather but calling for cold and flurries in the afternoon. So not going to drag out the field props.
At this point Norma and I plan to bring out a couple tanks for a battle or two late afternoon and stay for the schnitzel dinner.
