hi paul
this could be done by using a very low presure spring, with a pin holding the shell in place. then using a servo to pull the pin this will in turn eject the shell

cheers sean
as for how thomas did it im not sure

Hi Sean.

Yes cheers for that I had wondered about a spring set up myself should be pretty easy to do, I just best Thomas has a more complex set up than that though

.
If this is the same Sean...did you get your 222?
Cheers Paul

One more vote of thanks to Gill, Mark, family and friends who made this Open Day such a success.

It was great to meet up with friends new and old, as well as meeting people such as Thomas, who are so involved in the hobby yet only known through emails.

There was a great selection of tanks this year, not just the usual Tiger I display - I wonder if there will be a rearrangement of the competition categories at the next Open Day ... ?

My favourite is shown below. Unless you're been following the build log on the forum, it would be easy to miss the amount of detail which has been added - it really says something about a model when you can't tell if it is 1:6 or 1:1 ...

Adrian.

Better late than never, I would like to thank all concerned for a most enjoyable weekend

and I am sure you will be pleased to know Gill that I have managed to print off the group photograph this year!
It was good to meet up with Phil and Catherine Woollard again after all these years, and I would like to convey Will's best wishes to them.

Hi Adrian.
I think you have a very good point there about the amount of work gone into the above tank its a really nice job, I do think the Panzer 111 lends itself very nicely to all the little extras, I especially like the open sides and the fact that you can get a nice track sag over the return rollers.
Cheers Paul
