Well had the KT out for a little action today. Lighting was only OK so the pic's aren't stellar. Haven't weathered it yet and I'm not sure if I really will. I wan't at least one 'clean' tank in the collection. Shot some video out at the bfr (backyard firing range) and I'll post em on youtube before too long.

Overall, very happy with the tank. Runs great and it's huge compared to my others.

hdbeast,
I really liked building this one. Even though it was not a FO the quality was exceptional and a few upgrades from Daryl brought it into shape. If I get another it will probably be a Sherman. I think the next tank I will get will be the HL stug as I have always liked those, and I like the heavy modding. Everyone knows I'm a proponent of HL tanks and this is not a slam but this thing runs soooo much better than my HL's, even after all the mods I've made to them.
Last days of summer and I have been spending more time out at the race track with my Challenger and less time on tanks. Closing down my consulting business and starting a new job in Oct so we'll see.

I Know what you mean, I'll always buy the HLs for the moding and for there price, I just received my Transmitter a few hours ago for the Sherman and it needs to charge for 24 hrs. before I can try out the tank[&o]. I still have lots of work to completely finish it, but it's at the stage to Install the electronics and adjust and test them. Good luck on you new job.[sm=thumbup.gif]

Looks good Perry !
If you get the Sherman, you will be re-impressed, its got more metal parts than the KT and that neat suspension. I am also lookin forward to a HL Stug. I should be adding photos of my KT soon, just been busy lately.
