Right so when you Starting build

H.O.T.A.S.

Imagine the sight of a dozen or so of those tanks thundering across the agricultural plains of North County Dublin at the break neck speed of 15MPH! Still would give the Cavalry a run for their money

gandalf

Jaysus I want one of those. Can you get it in King Tiger configuration

Arcto

Looks a bit dodgy on second look, doesnt it? The way hes ramping that. Imagine it fell over. Goodbye neck!

Theres actually a tiger one on youtube somewhere, ive seen it before gandalf. Sorry i dont have the link.

4.1 tons? WTF! The only way is if it is armoured, and whats the bloody point?

ED E

4.1, i sincerly doubt that. The whole thing would need to be full of sandbags to make it that heavy. Even armoured for PB guns it'd be way less.

Hivemind187

Was it weighed before or after NOIP got in?

ED E

Be Nice:D

Gonna request a quote, might cash out my savings, just for the novelty of having a tank:p

Manufacturer was on radio yesterday will be selling for 9800 stg selling mainly to paintball sites but can be modified to mount what you like on it and they are developing a two person one.

Driving lessons?

Cuddlesworth

Newspaper said 4.1 ton's which seemed a little excessive. More likely a case of Irish journalism.

ED E

Skid Driving = Childs play.

First hes gotta be legal to drive:p

NakedDex

Probably more like 1.4 tonnes, if that. And most of that would be the tracks and engine. I doubt the "armour" is anything more than 16gauge steel or 2021 aluminium.

The insurance quote would be epic.

"Is it a 4 wheel drive?"
"Not exactly"
*price hike*
"So it's rear wheel drive then"
"Well it doesn't actually have wheels"
*price hike*
"Will it be parked in a secure location?"
"It'll generally be in a forest"
*price hike*

ED E

Well I'm 17 in march but if its classified as farm equi. i need to be 18 for roads. A 3 year old can drive em on private property though:p

a couple of m60s and a desert storm paint job, and you've got yourself a mini Chenowth

some of the buggys linked are road legal :P

ED E

Ok, change of plan: Start simple:


Something like above but as a turret with an armoured plate. Basically, take an industrial swivel chair, add base for feet, bolt on tubular steel frame, add 2x 249 with Custom mag extensions and Upgradded barrell(Whats the longest AEG barrel???). Add Armoured plate and batt pack. Paint.:D
