Thanks for the information.  Your spreadsheet will come in handy.   I need to locate a drawing now.  Hopefully I can find something on the yahoo group.

Jeffery,

The Abrams hull length is only 312 inches, not 384 inches.  Consequently
a 1/10 scale M1A1 is too small for RC Tank Combat.  1/8 scale will be about
the minimum.

Please see "Hobby" at   www.anvilus.com

I provided full-size and 1/8 scale specs, hull drawings and a link
to the Yahoo! Abrams group.  They have many excellent drawings
there.  The XM1 drawings show overall dimensions.

I have a working 1/8 scale aluminum Abrams hull with torsion bar
suspension.  The turret may get completed some day.
