Re: Hello - Newbie Here [TANKS]

Thanks for the information.   We live in the Baltimore, MD area and will be taking a ride down to the Maryland Attack Group's spring battle "Operation Risk - the Revenge" next weekend.

 

I have been thinking about using the  MOB OSMC Combo (http://robotpower.com/catalog/#combo) with a pair of the CM80 motors or simular as the power plant.  Think this would be overkill for a 1/9th Abrams tank?  Just kicking around some ideas here.

 

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi there Jeff and welcome to the list.

There isn't really a first step in this hobby but being determined to build one might be a good one. There is a lot of info about starting up this hobby at the website: http://www.rctankcombat.com/articles/

 

If you Google ''Abrams'' you get tons of photos and drawings.

 

Good luck!

Hello,

 

My 2 sons and I play paintball and we also enjoy radio control models.   We had stumbled onto your WEB site and liked what we saw.  We'd like to try our hand at building a tank.   What is the first step?   Are there any drawings of the Abrams?

 

 

Thanks

Jeff
