Bugger!, just tested the link and it doesn't work! "Frames" in HTML or something. Sorry.


Never mind go to the Conrad Germany page and do a search on RB-35 there.

Conrad do do mail order in the UK now, but only on a very limited subset of what they sell on the continent!

I was gagging to get these motors back in July, but since I swapped to metal gears in the HL gearboxes I've been more than happy to stay with them...

Those Conrad motors/gearboxes look good. I think in the future I might try to put two in the Panzer IV. I'm not sure if they would fit the tank chassis. I really want to get it running more reliable, and that seems like it might work.

Also, the King Tiger is here at last. It's in good condition, but right now I am taking it apart and cleaning it. The past few owners look like they enjoyed running it to death without cleaning it. I now have samples of all their grass clippings for a scrap book! It stayed well lubed so no damge was done to any bearings or gears, luckily.

The track is incredible! I will not use CA on the track to keep the pins in place, though. The last owner did, and ended up bonding several links together. This would cause the track to ride up over the sprocket teeth and throw it. Took me a while to figure out why it kept throwing track, but after de-bonding the suspected links, it ran smoothly. I will just have to occasionally do what tankers call "Walking the track", which means inpect the track while the tank is moving slowly forward. Very realistic track, indeed!
