I remember there was a thread for this but I can't find it! With the several new people posting in the forum, and the new people showing up at the club meets, I'm starting to lose track of who is who!

AnyWho, I'd like to introduce ourselves again, get some sort of association with names, face and what tanks you own ! I'll go first ;-)

My name is Jordan, I have four combat tanks at the moment which include my two DAK tanks, the tiger and panzer iii, as well as my Sherman and KV-2.

Pictures later....

Ah, hey Russell, I do remember you from the indoor meet Razz

Dean, good healthy mix of allied & axis tanks! The club collectively has several of each of your types to look at, you've pretty much hit the motherload of tank knowledge haha.

Tom are you coming down next meet?

Glen B. (like the sign in name Wink )

I built static models decades ago. I decided to try RC Tanks in the summer of 2010 after some disasters with RC Planes (it is possible to write off an "easy to fly, impossible to crash" Hobby Zone Piper Cub trainer Embarassed Embarassed )

I attended the very first Can Am Meet On Sept. 10, 2010 and I think I have made it to all of the meets, since.

Started airbrushing in the fall of 2010.

My current duties at the Can Am Club are;

Communication with the Black Creek Community Centre, including collecting dues and turning them over to the Centre.

Holder of the Can Am's key to the Black Creek Community Centre building.

Check the field, periodically.

Field preparation prior to the Meets, but I would appreciate help with the grass cutting and weed whipping etc. from any of our members that are within a reasonable, short commute.

Weather monitoring to call a "go, no-go" for the Meets (Co-chaired with Stinger).

(It helps to live a 10km drive from the club battlefield)



My current inventory, with SLU conversion to IR and numerous upgrades;

HL Panther 103

HL Panther 435

HL Tiger I, Das Reich, Russi, summer 1943

HL Tiger II "Anneleise" Abt 503, Hungary Oct, 1944

Taigen Tiger I (late) Abt 506, Russia, 1944

Next Project: Taigen Tiger I (early)


Other;

HL Jagdpanther, 10th SS Hungary 1945 (may eventually convert to IR)

HL Stug III F8, Stug Abt 210, Russia 1943, DBC (future to be decided, don't like it with the DBC, a Clark candidate?)

My name is Derek.

I'm a 2 year veteran of IR tank battling. Oh the carnage of twisted plastic wrecks I've seen! pale (at least when Captain Action is around. sly )

I've currently have 6 Battlers at the moment, all with SLUs, my favourite to use is my Panzer III.

I just recently bought a Bergerpanzer IV, which I hope to set up with a "repair mode" for the battlefield. (because some need to help out the Pan-Tiger. sly )

My name is Hazen.
I live in Colorado.
Just started the rc tank hobby when I joined this forum having been talked into it by Stinger.
I really do plan on making a battle day up there sometime!

Currently I have:
HL Pz.III awaiting camo and an ir system
HL KV-1 "metal version" sitting on display and awaiting camo and an ir system

Going to start my air-brushing career right here with the Pz.III, well actually a "paper panzer" 1st.

My avatar depicts the tractor I drive which is a tracked John Deere 9530. Its as close as I've gotten to driving a tank!

Im pleased to see so many new faces / avatars.

Yet to make an appearance here are Ian (Stinger /Captain King Tiger... no you cannot argue this), Frank (Captain Action), Knipsel and Ke (hulu), regular club members from last season!





...which leads me to this random idea.. Glen, do we have a club roster?
