Hello men

Mobile combat, as required by warfare on the move, would not have been possible without radio guidance. The superiority of the German tank weapon, especially against the numerically superior French tank weapon, was mainly made possible by the installation of transmitting and receiving devices in the German armored vehicles. Whether for use within individual regiments or for commanding entire armies, wireless communication became more and more important in the course of the war and radio equipment became more and more compact.
In the last few weeks I have been working with the sdkfz 250's FM receiver. This unit is far from finished, but I'm on the right track. I cast the shock absorbers out of rubber so that the radio is not sucked through as much as in the original while driving

i rely a lot on 3d technology. a lot of the components come from my 3d printer and what I don't make out of brass or poly, because I work on many projects in parallel. can i save time and let the printer do the work for my 250s you don't get any sensible components. So it's all about making and building everything from the chain to the smallest detail. 4 years of work and over 3000 euros have already been put into this project.

my friend drew me the Tracks
a further friend in the neighboring village she poured it for me. i also use these on my sdkfz 10 the rollers come from my 3d printer.
the drive wheels are milled from 4mm steel. if you want a chain let me know, the chain pads are self-made.

So much greater to hear about some of the techniques used! :shock:
I imagine you are using a resin (Harz) printer?
A little too much is about right...

hi volks

Structurally, my semi-track is complete. It drives great, and as far as the interior is concerned, nothing is left to be desired.
The color won't be available until autumn until it's on the shelf. After all, the next project that wants to be built is already waiting

Beautiful work. That thing is packed full of details! You have to be small to ride in the back compartment. I love the radio set!
Thanks for sharing.
