I would if I had any but believe it or not I didn't make any. I used a 1/35 model, multiplied the dimensions x 14 and used scratch paper. I'll sure answer any questions you have.
I'm currently building the turret now hopefully by the end of July it will be done. It's the newer A5 model leopard with the spear head shaped turret if you check out my main page there is a picture of the frame work of the turret sitting on the Hull.
I would think so but the problems I see with it is space and matching rpms so it would run straight. The rpm challenge might not be to difficult but you would have to try it and see. linking all the controls shouldn't be too hard, and if you have the space I would say give it a shot.
I have put a pressure relief valve in but that didn't fix the turning problem. I do however think I have a solution to the problem thank to the help of the guys at scaled tanks and a few of my coworkers in a divider valve and two individual spool valves
When I built my 1/2 scale tiger, I used a 2 stage logsplitter pump, having 2 speeds is great, when turning it downshifts into high pressure and when it is not needed (driving strait) you can go 20mph. Also, use 2 single spool valves in series, or use just a basic 2 spool. If you add a flow divider it will cost about the same and it will be VERY SLOW. Either setup will produce the same torque, which will be enough to solve turning issues. Check out my vids you'll see what i mean.
I did notice it sounded like the engine was about to stall every time you turned. Is that just cold hydraulic fluid, or are you going to have to get a bigger engine?
nice design but it seams a little weak i the pooh per when turning or are you scared to turn hard yet

Nice build, just wondering where you got your tracks or if you built them yourself and how so.

I'm not sure I haven't had it wide open yet. I would guess around 10 15 mph

that is freaking awesome man! Im planning a jagdpanther build myself. some more detailed info on what hydraulic components would be great.

That's great. my build is 40% so it's a little small for a two man crew, so I'll be the gunner and driver.

Really nice job, I can't wait to see more.
I did notice it sounded like the engine was about to stall every time you turned. Is that just cold hydraulic fluid, or are you going to have to get a bigger engine?
Like I said, great job and I can't wait for more.
