Its pretty scale. All the tanks are never actually 1:1 scale except for armortek. But ya I like the Bradley I getting this one. looks like China RC tank companies are starting to make better products and a heaps away from the old henglong days.. 😂😂. Kudos to them.
If "making models do things they were never meant to do" is your tagline, then you're missing out on the challenge of model ships. You can't make a plastic model car drive without major modifications and a plastic model airplane will never fly because they are too heavy, but a motorized conversion of a model ship only needs a motor for the kit prop (prop shaft and batteries) and it will free sail by itself. R/C conversion only adds a transmitter/receiver, an electronic speed control and a servo for the rudder.
Thanks for the comment I do enjoy converting ships as well I have done the gato sub, flower class corvette and german s boat all ik 1/72 scale. I just don't think they are good enough for public consumption compared to the rest on RU-vid :) 😀
Most (and there aren't many) motorized plastic model airplanes have the prop spinning at max speed for the supplied voltage (1.5-3V) which could be as high as 10,000 RPMbut realism would require an RPM of 2,700 or less (if the real plane had a propeller reduction gear). Your propeller RPM looks right. 👍
Thank-you very much I appreciate that. I do try to get them to look right most of the time I use a small cordless micro drone motor which with a heavy prop spins about right
I don’t know how to do it, but I was thinking about the old shooting gallery at the state fair and how you’d shoot an ir receiver and a pneumatic pump or something would trigger something fun. I was wondering if you could make an interactive diorama the same way. Like a small, wrecked village with AT positions and what not and you’d shoot them and then a little air mortar would blast out a bunch of flour and tiny foam bricks to make a scale explosion. Would be cool. Don’t know how to make it.
I wish the bushmaster fired slower on this model. Instead of a tikatikatika it’s more of a poom.poom.poom. The sound and cadence of it currently is more like the coax.
@@americanpatriot2422 Still waiting for somebody to pick up their line of Dodge 4x4 and 6x6 trucks, but I'm guessing that the licencing is the sticking point.
The only other thing I would say is that when you have painted your crew kit etc you should give them a coat of Tamiya ‘ flat’ varnish it’s brilliant - sorry no it’s anything but brilliant it’s flat!
If you read the instructions you will find how to adjust the volume, the button with the V is basically the on off button for the sound. It’s completely different from the older versions. Worth studying the instructions as you will find other control features you didn’t know you had. Having said all that, I have no idea what the tank is using for a it’s main control board, the fact that it’s using what looks like the standard HL series 6 transmitter would be an indication that it’s using the same 6 series board, it would be nice to know.
Asking for help... can you tell me exact what size hex wrench needed to remove road wheels? Are they standard or metric? I tried removing them but was afraid to strip those screws as they are very tight; I am trying to use a metric wrench with difficulty. Please advise.
@@Bengineeringprojects ... thanks a bunch, I was just afraid to strip them for putting on metal running gears. I am a former Cav guy and have been waiting for this model for a long, long time. I aim to treat it like a model, putting on anti-skid surfaces, cutting out those molded in handles on the skirts with wire ones, etc. i'll be spending alot of time on this new model; just wish it has 360 turret rotation.
@@Bengineeringprojects ... and all those external luggage n gears looked like just lumps of ill molded plastic so I'll either 'reculpt' all those gears with sharper outlines or simple made new ones completely!
@cav1stlt922 yeah I was not impressed with the supplied stowage so I weathered what I could and added some of my own aftermarket bits www.ebay.co.uk/itm/386513497366?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=cb8ki-ultdc&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=sEnk-db-SDS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Great work. Do you have a video of the actual build? I am particularly interested in the fitting of the motor and sound module and how they are all wired up. Thanks, Rob..
