If ever there was a good reason to buy an Armortek Tiger 1, this has to be it.

Mick, email us the problem that you face and some pictures of the setup.

The following steps will enable you to : 1. Set up the transmitter for SINGLE stick driving (i.e controlling the drive of both tracks from the right stick) 2.

My view is that grievances with organisations should be addressed to them directly first. In this case the main issue is that people could not get a response from FOA, so I kept this thread open whilst we worked in the background to contact Loic through a third party to give him the opportunity to r...

A few more pictures of the KT Validation build as well a the growing piles of finished parts that will need packing soon. Starting with some fantastic sample castings that we have just received. Nice to be working with smaller cast parts after the last lot ! IMG_7207.JPG IMG_7208.JPG IMG_7202.JPG IM...

This has been longstanding advice from Armortek although I don't believe it's been re-validated recently. Still very much our advice. Unless you have a sealed environment, over time contami...

Survey Results: We have been asked a few times for the results from the survey that we ran a month ago. Our policy is not to give too much away, not because we want to keep our customers in the dark, but more because we don't want other companies to get an insight into what we are up to.

No pictures I'm afraid - it was too embarrassing.

Today we were testing out the sounds files & have a series of 2 short videos: Video 1 - Engine startup, acceleration, deceleration and engine shutdown. https://youtu.be/Tro4NApgPiI Video 2 - Fuel pump start, auxiliary engine start & increas...

Been a while since our King Tiger update, so here are some pictures of the Production Validation Build. Still a way to go, but it is coming together nicely. After 3 heavy tanks in a row (Chieftain, KT & JD, think it may be time for something lighter :wink: ) IMG_7164.JPG IMG_7167.JPG IMG_7168.JPG IM...

Flysky and Frsky ordered.
Will get to testing them sometime in Nov/ Dec and post the results here.
