Mark 1 Tank has over 15 years’ experience supplying
the ultimate in large scale radio controlled Tanks. We also supply Halftracks, Jeeps, Wheeled Armoured Cars and Amphibious military vehicles. |

|
Our reputation
for supplying strong, tough and long lasting large scale military Models is
second to none. The main tub, top and turret are made from high density
fibreglass, up to 25mm thick on the larger scale models, giving un-rivalled
strength, detail and durability along with being corrosion free. All moving
mechanical parts [excluding smaller wheeled vehicles like the Willy’s
Jeep] are made from metals, including tracks, wheels, sprockets, idlers,
suspension, drive train bearings and axles. Rubber is used exclusively for
all tyres whether applied to a Tank or wheeled vehicle and is also used for
the track blocks where applicable on the modern tracks. Using Chain drive
motors [from 250w on 1/8 scale, 350w on 1/6 scale and 500w on 1/4 scale] all
our vehicles have more power than is required which makes them very
efficient. Typically a 1/6 scale Tank, on level ground, going straight will
only draw around 2 amps! Run times of over 3 hours are not uncommon. The time
from order to completion is normally around 20 weeks although this can on
occasions take longer. You will always be kept informed of progress and are
welcome to contact Mark at any time to discuss. When all the parts are ready
for the final assembly you will receive a daily photographic record of each
days progress until completion. |

Functional testing |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Once all
parts of the specific Vehicle has been fitted and individually tested, we spend
another period of time running the tank on our specially designed test track.
We understand we have the only test track of this type in the UK. Mud, grass,
water and several slopes to climb and descend to ensure each tank meets our very high quality standards. A full and detailed
visual inspection is then carried out (and recorded) to ensure that no damage
has occurred during the function testing. |

Final testing |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
With the
tank in its finished state, we drive it once again for a further half hour
around our unique testing track specifically designed to make these fine
working models meet our high quality standards. All batteries are then
recharged and the tank is ready for collection or delivery as required.
(Delivery prices are provided on application, please Email for details). |
