OK, I haven't updated for an age but I have been experiencing stress at work the like of which I haven't encountered before. This stress manifests itself as a middle-aged man with a flat-top haircut and a small moustache. My boss. He's an arse.
Anyway, after much cajoling by Neil, I sat down and did some detailed design work on a new hull for a Valentine. The Centurion has been scrapped as we decided the turret ws just going to be too difficult to fabricate. So, back to a valentine - with a slightly enlarged hull this time to allow the motors to sit comfortably. Click on the thumbnails, gents.
Actually, these pics aren't up to date because there is now the skeleton of a turret in view too. And the speed controller, motors and switch panel is installed. I am awaiting my suspension arms which are being fabricated by a local firm (Joltek Engineering) although they aren't rushing and I'm thinking of looking elsewhere.
Nice to see that progress is being made! I note what happened to the Centurion though: if there is a chance of the Valentine going the same way, PLEASE let me have it!
Cheers
John
