Well, post some more pics. That one's good enough to frame (I'm serious)

I'll try getting some pics of my Russians, but I've got to put one of them back together after I nearly ruined it with oil.

both my tanks move toone side, and the beige one is really REALLY noisey.. i think i may need new motors, are they available for these?

I know I've already said this twice but that is a good picture. You should try selling it to Konami/Takara for them to put in advertising. LOL. Somehow I don't think they'd buy it but it wouldn't hurt to try.

When I first got mine they went really straight but after one or two charges they would veer to one side. After correcting it with the trim control it would fix it but only at low or high speed not at both. I oiled the gears in one and the next time I tried it one motor had noooo power. I tore it apart and couldn't determine if it was the pinion slipping on the motor shaft or if the motor was just plain shot. That was 2 weeks ago and I haven't touched it since.

hmmm, would you sell it to me for $20 bux?
-edit-that is if your not going to use it anymore, of course-edit-
-edit-that is, also of course, if you dont wanna mess with it anymore, and its justsittin gthere collecting dust and being a bothersome little non-working beast-edit-

I might consider it but only if I can't get it working again. Or I might just use it for parts in the future.

JTM · #12 01-29-2003, 03:12 AM

hmmm, ok but i really want it.. just thinkof all the good times it will have.. limping away with its new brothers on the battle course, doing happy little circles. maybe it too can pose for a promotional picture on the fancy diorama.

Hey, it could add new strategy to battles. It can barely move forward and can only make right turns. lol.

JTM · #14 01-29-2003, 03:25 AM

i just want another tank, these things rock so bad, you should see my microsizer/bit/clone collection, i have like 20 cars that dont work.. just to have them... BTW i live in fresno, cailfornia 93705 (for shipping prices if you wanna get rid of the poor peg leg tank.)
