Everyone at this site tries to help new guys.

Hetzer #T010 cost ~$1000.
Please read "components" file at http://www.anvilus.com/

The new 1/6 scale Stuarts from Wal-Mart cost $150
but they do not have a paint ball marker.

Usually, R/C car and truck components are not strong
enough for 1/6 scale tanks.  Hetzer #T010 weigh 80
pounds and the dread T-34 #T005 weighs 110 pounds.

1/6 scale tracks are not standard items.
Please read the "How-To" article on tracks at
http://www.rctankcombat.com/articles/track-systems/

If your hobby store can find them for you, they will
probably cost $300-$600.

Please read "components" file at http://www.anvilus.com/

Hetzer #T010 is the only current tank that uses
drill motors.  Everyone else is using EV Warriors
or wheelchair motors.
