Hi Phil

Thanks, about the camo paint job, I am not happy with, and will be repainted this summer.
The paint on skirts do not match the Tower.

Hello

Some update on my King Tiger. With big help from Steen Vøler member of RC-club here in Denmark.

New power cables were drawn (after switching these power cables out,the KT drive much better).

Steen fixed the turret rotation motor so it could finally turn around (error on the motor shaft)

The last fix Steen was elevation plate both sides of the barrel pivot.

Looking good Allan! Those holes in the floor will drive you bonkers when you drop small nuts and bolts :) :), it's so refreshing to see real peoples lives as they live with their Armortek models. keep posting as we are a bit short of interesting threads,(but not short of opinions) Regards Phil. :D :D

Yah you right. But new floor is on its way - without holes. Just bought yesterday. Are tired of collecting small screws/bolts up the holes. :D

It sounds GREAT, just running about 3 hours in low noice. It needs running about 10 year - then I can turn up the sound to max.
