Responding to a dead post kinda

There's another problem with gear driven systems, they have no slack in the system. Think about the torque being exerted on drivetrain components during a harsh downshift. In a a belt or chain system, there is some small amount of bounce that is taken up by the tensioning system. Performance suffers, but with a gear system, and especially on straight cut gears, all the load can shear a tooth. The best performance, and guaranteed to hold valve timing, but an extra failure point for race cars.

What's the engine? Like a 1.2L or something?

Brought it home after an eternity of working maybe a couple of hours a year on it.

I got this thing running pretty quickly despite the wait on parts, but getting it to run as it should was a pain, it still had all of its original parts (yes, even points/condenser/tires/brake shoes/...) and was never maintained in all those decades.

Pretty sure this was a sawn-off demo cockpit, but don't have any exterior pictures to confirm the type. Seen at the Scottish airshow 2014.

Met office BAe146 (not a great shot, I'm afraid.)

pilot, copilot, aircraft captain, engineer, navigator & radio operator
all that work can be done by two pilots with a relatively low workload these days on even the largest aircraft.

Naturally, it is a navigator's cabin.

Anyone have internals of Su-34? I hear they have a toilet, beds, and a small kitchen.

They also fly F35 B-variants in and out, as seen in the first Avengers. It's capable of STOVL but that design allows for less fuel-draining traditional take-off and landing and also allows adaptability for other non-STOVL aircraft to take off and land as well.

Not to shit on your morning brownies but Marvel Films©®™ are (im-)purely U.S. propaganda mouthpieces, for all the money and manpower from the U.S. Dept of Defense that gets invested in them at this time.

The benefit of aircraft carrier is that they use a more dense medium (water) to efficiently transport vehicles that use a less dense medium (air) which is less efficient to travel through, to carry out their mission.

Putting an aircraft carrier in air is pants on head retarded, absolutely nothing is gained by the arrangement.

So I don't get hit by flood detection, the rest of my photos are here:

Unfortunately it rained for most of the day, so many of the photos were spoiled by raindrops on the lens.

  The FV433 Abbot SPG is powered by the Rolls-Royce K60 opposed-piston 2-stroke diesel engine and it sounds like this:

  The Chieftain tank has the bigger, but similarly-designed Leyland L60 multifuel 2-stroke opposed-piston compression-ignition engine. 750 hp (560 kW) 6 Cyl, 19 litres.

>If you're just being sarcastic, totally, I'm throwing in a V8 and nitro booster.
I actually want to see this

Also put spikes on the tracks

Then it can probably climb trees and shit like a tank squirrel

I have a feeling getting ahold of the actual blueprints may be problematic... just age and wars inbetween have a way of making those things disappear. Buuut it is likely someone tried to reverse-engineer those dimensions since then, so that might be a place to start. Modeler's forums might be a good place to check for accurate scale drawings; some of the higher-end model kit makers have full detailed/scaled interiors as well.

World of Tanks forums might be another place to check, funny enough. Especially for details of interior spaces, armor thickness, etc.

Good luck! My own loooooong-term dream project is to build a StuG III for shits and giggles and a place to hang my relatives' mementos of being a StuG gunner. Sure it'll probably never happen in my case but it never hurts to dream rite?

"Hayes Otoupalik".
Get in touch with him, he owns one. Or rather the U.S. version, the 1917 Six ton .

Also, I saw this same thread in WoT, and I gave the same reply.

Perdón la ignorancia y no se si el hilo sigue activo.
Pero una buena oportunidad para poder conocer las dimensiones del tanque podría ser buscar modelos 3d ya realizados sobre el mismo.

En esta pagina esta a la venta un modelo del mismo donde encontrando algunas medidas se pueda llevar a escala y obtener en detalle los planos.

Es una sugerencia que tal vez funcione.

Es un hermoso tanque y yo también me enamore de el, pero en mi país es casi utópico poder imaginar en construir uno de esos

Saludos!

Forgive ignorance and I do not know if the thread is still active.
But a good opportunity to know the dimensions of the tank could be to look for 3d models already made on it.

On this page is for sale a model of the same where finding some measures can be scaled and get in detail the plans.

It's a suggestion that might work.

It is a beautiful tank and I also fall in love with it, but in my country it is almost utopian to be able to imagine building one of those

yep that's a Z

was that a late model 280 or an early 300? i forgot how to tell the difference.

was a 300ZX, first gen. was hosting images to sell it, and its sold.

War Department-liveried Foden steam wagon.

Can't remember what make this truck was. Unfortunately you can't make out the badge in the photo.

And finally a Latil four wheel drive truck.
