The DX6e is a budget version, This version does not come with rechargeable transmitter battery pack. There is no DX6i. The DX6 G3/e were superseded by the NX and IX ...

Marco, I’ve abandoned expensive so called weathering products in favour of oils. I find them a lot more controllable, much more cost effective and enjoyable. Might be worth a go if you’re having problems with MiG.

With Armortek moving to the Taranis X9D Plus as the new default radio, users will be using OTX and its software simulation and programming software, OpenTx Companion. Some owners are already using OTX to good ...

Great photos Charles. I’d leave calculating bridge classifications to clever people like Sappers but as a Tankie, I just want to know that It’s not going to collapse if I’m the second tank across.
