Hi All I am hoping to get my old Sherman running and this seems to be the place to ask a few questions. I have recently recovered this from the loft and dusted it off - it is mainly intact but a few bits are missing - i only want it functional not ultimate scale / original; this project is more for sentimental reasons. Another trip to the loft may turn up some bits but i am not holding out much hope. It has twin motors and a clutch for steering & metal tracks. I am involved in RC flying so the radio part i am fine with along with the battery related stuff too i think; it is the tank specific stuff i am looking for and in particular where i might source bits and bobs from. I plan to use a 7.2v nimh pack - does this sound OK (original was a lead acid i recall) I think it had micro switches for fwd/rev but i want to fit an ESC - any suggestions for suitable reverse capable units? I am missing a few body bits: gun barrel and mount, machine gun for turret and one for the front of the shell - are there any places that do these bits or can i use parts of a more recent model - they look similar from some googling. Thanks in advance for any pointers.
