RE: Tank #T006 Designated

["Burdett, Steve" <Steve.burdett-at-pembrokeshire.gov.uk>]

A British company by the name of Armortek on 01327 704934 manufacture scale
R/C tanks, I believe their range includes the PanzerIV H/J, Panther A and
they have just announced the Tiger1 and they're all available at 1/6th
scale.  One major drawback - the cost.  The Tiger's being advertised as
£1500 for the main Kit without motors, speed controllers, wiring etc.
Although for an extra £600 they can supply all of the above and a Beretta
pistol for firing 8mm blanks.

Their website is http://www.armortek.co.uk

T006 is a real work of art also.  I'd love to see a complete article
including sheets of plans for the model.  I'm looking to build one myself
out of light gage steel.
