I know less than you Brian.  I'd be happy to help but don't know how to
contribute constructively.

And that this point I'm a little confused.  Is this a paintball tank for use in
a paintball scenerio game or just a modeling project for a RC controlled tank?

I've been talking to people about both lately.  I'm on a special forces team to
take out German tanks at the D Day scenerio war game in June.  So if you think I
could help somehow, help get me back on track with your project.
