Gill / Mark,
Can you post any new update pics showing production parts & prototype for the halftrack, if any?
Thanks, Jim

Hi All

We have just updated the Armortek gallery to include photos of the M2 with the Motion Pack fitted.

http://www.armortek.co.uk/gallery/main. ... &g2_page=4

Also on the M2 Vehicle page there is a short video of the M2 running.

For information we now only have five of these kits remaining.

Gill and Mark

Thanks for the update Gill, it's certainly looking like another winner. If only I could get the time off work to come and collect mine !!

I'm surprised the electrics are so exposed - what's the experiance so far from previous vehicles with regards to puddles - any issues with splashing affecting the motors or servos ?

Adrian.

The electrics in the M2 are no more exposed than those in the sdkfz7 or the sdkfz222. We are not aware of any issues with water splashing. Our demonstrator models have been driven through some pretty rough weather and deep water, with no negative effects.

Thanks for the confirmation.

I guess this year's Beltring is likely to be the acid test (or should that be H2O test ?)
