Hmmm if the tracks are made of the same plastic as the rest of the kit, i do have reservations about how easy it would be to form them . I am inclined to agree that a hairdryer as someone else has said may be the only way to get the plastic to conform.
Hi Peter, I built a kit with similar tracks, may have been the Revell M60? Anyway I found the warmth of your hands are usually enough to make them conform to the wheels, but agree they are not ideal.
Peter do you remember a Revell kit of a US Navy(?) plane which was yellow, I think it was some sort of Curtis which had clips similar to bulldog clips to hold the plane down to the carpet etc
Nice kit, but I prefer tanks and other ground vehicles in 1/35 scale. Although I have built many Matchbox Purple range 1/76 scale kits when I was much younger. I have several Leopard I and II tanks, by different brands. Not a 2A6 version... yet. Not sure if I like these tracks. Oh well. It will be faster than cutting and glueing hundreds of separate links.
@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab I'm just curious as to it's bottom line pounds wise I know that my stash is potentially worth $$$$$$ but I could n e v e r afford R/C stuff. I have to be content flight simming :)

Cool as always. 👍

Hello, A Hair dryer would help you with these pesky tracks...Cheers
Strange, defo no notification for your video Peter and i checked as well.
@@cyberleaderandy1 Do you have ‘ALL’ notifications checked?
…if do you have ‘Personalised’ box checked, change to ‘ALL’
@@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab i do Peter, though unsubscribed and the resubscribed so hopefully will fix it.
I think the tools would be better as separate items Peter.
@@MichaelCampin Maybe that's asking a lot at this scale?

@@MichaelCampin I don't remember that one? Was it 1/72?
@@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab yes peter it was but very early 70s could have even been a biplane

Peter, tell me you don't have an unaffordable other hobby😊 R/C jets?? How have you managed to do both plastic kits AND R/C flying.??😊
@@DennisRobart I have to be 'Anakin Skywalker' for R/C flying 😈 and 'Yoda' for kit building...😑

With my flight simming I mean :)
BTW will you be at the Flory stream tonight? :)
