Hi all of KT lover,

It is 1/2.4 scale, all metal KT customer-made model, not only R/C-able, but also ride on and drive-able.
From what the builder has quoted, the chassis is weight 2 tonnes (with fake scaled-thickness armour), and the turret is 500 kg. The Diesel engine is 740 c.c.. :shock:

I have found more footages on the YouTube:







(See Colin's quote above)













Check it out yourself....

Regards,
Lerh Chang

The StuG uses a special RC equipment designed for industrial purposes like cranes. I hope the King Tiger will use similar equipment.... :roll:

That's an incredible model. Even at 1/2 scale it looks pretty tight to ride in. I like that it will be Porsche type turret version. Amazing dedication.
