WWAF ( Wild Willy's Armed Force's)
after the return to there head-quarters from the November 2004 R/C-tank-battle-day in Danville,VA
unloading started immediately....
to get them ready for the next battle coming weekend in Atlanta,GA .....
this heavy hauler has a 6WD tractor ..
shiftable from 4x4 to 6x6 via the R/C system ,
fully locked axles for maximum traction...
2 speed transmission ......
goose-neck-dolly and the 2 rear-axles are steerable as well ....
my new Pershing survived the first battle-action without any problems ..
and performed surprisingly well ....
( click on the photo above to see my first evaluation ......)
(under construction-will be updated soon...)
Tiger 1 :
metal-tracks
faster turret-rotation
my Tiger 1 survived again without any damage or breakdowns.....
but needs a change to the gear-ratio....
I bean still running this tank with my first generation gear-reduction
( very slow , but lots of torque ) ..
it's time now to change the setup to a faster gear-ratio
and with some more gearbox-upgrades and better motor's.....
most likely I will upgrade this battle-proofen tank to my "heavy-metal" setup...
King Tiger :
metal-tracks
faster turret-rotation
this good old battle-proofen King Tiger ( Porsche Turret )
survived again without any problems what so ever....
this was always my experimental tank
( besides that this tank was upgraded from a static version to a fully MF-tank ,
except it doesn't has the gun-recoil , not yet.... )
the stock King Tiger needs the most upgrades....
besides the speed issue....,needs gear-reductions ...
the rear-idler-system is a problem....
especially if you want to run metal-tracks ...
or better was , I upgraded mine with a self-made
rear-idler-tensioning-system....
upcoming upgrades :
fully ball-bearings in the road-wheels
and changes to the gear-box-setup
for more tank-stuff
