Looks great. Very nice battery tray. Trying to get a similar tray for my tiger. Hava a volunteer to make it but hard to pin him down with all that fresh snow in the Alps.

Any idea for a paint scheme?

Hello John,

but i know what collors i'm gonna use Tamiya dark yellow
dark green
red brown

Ps: I wish all the people on the forum a Happy New 2012

Hi Yves,

Nice to see the progress on your KT. Looks great. Living in Belgium the 008 from the Peiper Kampfgruppe seems obvious

Happy New Year to you and everyone on the forum

looking good yves, i like the battery tray, nice and big, keep the posts coming, regards simon.

Looks very spacious.

Hello,

Simon and John i made my own battery tray because my tray has bigger
raised edges to connect my engine compartment on, and ath the front
between the motors i put the speedcontroller module on the tray. the smokers i'm gonna
place them on the side pannels of the tank in the back of the tank.
I have no place on the backside of the tray because there comes the static
Maybach engine and one of the battery's.
Best regards Yves

Hi Yves,
Nice work. I Like the longer floor tray too.
Is the tension bolt (CK0308) 6x60mm stock one or replaced longer one? Mine was replaced to 6x65mm bolt.
Regards,
Lerh Chang

Just how I want my tray. I want to make use of the space between the motors.

Hello Chang,

Yes i used longer tension bolts, i think they are 80mm long
Denny was so kind to send me a couple of these bolts.

John, yes i'm also gonna use the space between de motors for my speedcontroler
module, i dit this also on my tiger 1

Here are some pictures of my work on the KT

The speakers and all the electronic modules are gonna keep in place
with velcro strips.

I also got my Maybach engine from Pedding haus decals this time
it takes just 10 from order to send it home.

Will you cut the engine this time or do you have space for the full engine.

Hello John,

Yes i'm gonna cut the engine, just like i dit on the tiger 1,
the most details are just above the cutting
i'm gonna use the same setup for my 2 battery's.
I want to keep the battery's away from the blankfire,

regards Yves
