I couldn't agree more with you Tony. I have been working on a scratchbuilt
1/7 scale Panther II for some time now, an the tracks have been the bane of
the whole project. If you're wondering about the odd scale, nobody made a
large scale Panther II, so I bought a 1/35 model kit and scaled it up,
drawing plans along the way. It was easier to multiply all the dimensions by
5 instead of some fraction, hence 1/7 scale. Although the project isn't as
technically sound as I had hoped, it taught me a lot of things that I am
going to apply to my next one.

And I see no reason why the 1/6 scale Stuart at Toys R Us couldn't be
modified for RC. It would just take some work to do so.

Good Luck!
Bob
