[pveg65]

That a nice job. I see you chose 5th Light Div. markings. Go Afrika Korps !

[rva1945]

Are the tracks made of individual plastic links, or it's a rubber elastic type?

[ppplll000999]

@rva1945 one piece vinyl.

[TheSharkwhisperer]

That looks great! Nicely done!

mumy can i go out garage?

[ppplll000999]

@wariornt How many times I told you NOT to go out to that #@%^ing garage. Do you want to be run over & have your skull crushed !

[callumjp3]

how mutch have you spent on rc tanks

[ppplll000999]

@callumjp3 You will be surprised how ' little ' I spent on them :) mainly because the models I picked are of small scale & mostly are dated or even vintage. The parts are most surpluses or from bargains and broken parts. The total cost of this Panzer-1 is roughly $ 38 canadian( Cd $ almost par to US).

[amartinjoe]

I love it!

[bestamerica]

'

wow very pretty model tank,,,

how about the MAUS tank

[ppplll000999]

@bestamerica Look under Panzer Vlll RC maus Youtube video

[bobilla223]

wasnt this tank designed in WW1 so it was more for taking out infantry than tanks right?

[ppplll000999]

@bobilla223 @bobilla223 I was told that this light tank was designed in 1932. Though the concept of a medium tank was there, this machine was chosen due to 1) cheap & easily mass produced 2) badly needing training tanks for new tank tactics 3)Somewhat influenced by light tank heresy popular at that time 4) a stop gap temporary tank before a medium tank can be designed.

[ppplll000999]

.. Guderian later commented ' Nobody in 1932 could have guessed that one day we should have to go into action with this little training tank ...' :)

[GrandPimp20]

Cute

[EnterpriseXI]

Sweet panzer man. was it just a model?

[ppplll000999]

[hemi57]

Very, very, very nice model!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[g4q9n2]

great job! Thanks for posting!

[Crotiger99]

What is the name of song and yeah this is nice video i like german tanks.

[ppplll000999]

It is an old German song called Lilli Marlene, popular among both German & British soldiers during WW2.

[brokencasket]

yea real shock and awe, obsolete by 1939... later converted to anti-tank, or munitions carriers, observation vehicles and ambulances etc.

[pscartozzi]

very nice work indeed.

Perry

[Derix666]

1/16 wäre wesentlich interessanter

[ppplll000999]

Bitte finden Sie es. Ich werde es kaufen :).

[DerKast]

Zvezda kit?

[ppplll000999]

Ja, das ist richtig.

[Assassinus2]

Very nice.  The job you've done on painting the tank's quite nice, to say nothing of the RC'ing job.

I liked the bit at the end where the Pz. I drives past all the other panzers and parks next to the Pz. II.

[TORNADO6018]

2:05 :)

[saberdryver]

thats some amazing modeling skills... the panzer is under rated everybody knows tiger and king tiger but the panzer was the first to give us shock and awe

[crackednails]

amazing craftsmanship, what scale is the Tiger I in the video, 1/16?

[ppplll000999]

Yes, HL's 1/16 tank

[peepeevagi]

The ultimate riot control, A Panzer |.

[hatakashi1900]

WOW very very very nice!

I would love to add a Pz I to my Panzer Battalion!

[8900609]

very nice man but i have one question does it have metal parts or only plastic please reply anyway im gonna rate 5 stars!!

[ppplll000999]

It is mainly plastic because it came from a plastic static model kit originally. Some metal parts have to be added for durability or functionality, e.g. the axles, springs, antenna etc.

[8900609]

hey man thanks!!! about your reply to me!!anyway do you know red alert 2 can you make an apocalypse tank please

[HeroKero]

wow : )

[HeroKero]

wow nice, good job : ), took many days to complite the model ?

[ppplll000999]

Roughly 25 days :)

[shamalika]

lol really small to tiger tank btw good vid

[wesmander]

nice , have you considered using working individual link tracks , fruilismodel make a set for panzer 1 i think

[ppplll000999]

Its price is still a deterrent for a lot of people.

[grandtheftauto4123]

can you make a video on how to make an rc tank?

[nitroRChobbies]

from what grandtheftauto4123 was saying can you make a video on how to make one of these model tanks?

[ppplll000999]

My '1/35 Panzer lV simplest RC conversion ' is a tutorial :)

[jadberro]

AMAZING MAN AMAZING I BUILT A TANK AND HAVE ITS VIDEO UP ON FACEBOOK CHECK IT OUT IF YOU WANT BUT MINE IS NOT AS GOOD LOOKING AS YOURS BUT I THINK MORE POWERFULL :p:p

[sneaker303]

Super job! - both the model and the video.

[manofthehour91]

i must be an idiot because i just can't keep the rubber treads together for the life of me

they always come unglued and melting the ends together doesn't sound like a good idea

what did you do?

[ppplll000999]

Melting the vinyl/rubber pins is the only sure way to secure the connection. The trick is to melt the 2 (or 4 pins) so that the resulting melted pins are flat like rivets. This came with practice. Even with lumpy melts, the tank will still run, but with a little extra bumpiness to remind you the lousy job :).

[manofthehour91]

ok ill give that a shot next time thanks

[grandtheftauto4123]

where do you get all the gears and the radio? i want to make one!

[ppplll000999]

from surplus parts or parts from various bargain small toys.

[grandtheftauto4123]

so from other cheap rc's?

[ppplll000999]

Correct.

[grandtheftauto4123]

ok! i have lots of that stuff so il get building!

[grandtheftauto4123]

how do make the suspension? you should make a vid how to make there rc's!

[ppplll000999]

Every situation is different & I usually pick the easiest way out as long as it works. I forgot exactly how I did in this tiny one. However for the traditional way done universially by all RC converters is the use of piano wire 'torsion bars'. You can find some clues from my ' 1/35 Russian BMP3 RC conversion' video.

[grandtheftauto4123]

so it just scratch building from other rc's and pianos? ok il get started!

[band0fbr0thers]

whre u get ur electrical components from?

[ppplll000999]

from cheap rc bargain toys.

[pontiac999999]

What bkit brand did you use, Italeri, tristar...???

[ppplll000999]

Zvezda kit.

[Runetatti]

so cute!

[altewutz]

Really sweet amazing modell.

Good work!!

[ppplll000999]

First 2 wheels need modification with springs.

[kokhowe]

Your work is amazing! Is the working syspension stock, or did you modify it to make it work?
