I can't sleep so I thought I check out the large scale for a change....very interesting...

Just wondering if there is any M113 series out there in 1/16 that is also RC....if there is one, I might want to built one that moves....

Any body in the large scale community knows about this ?

Never seen one, the only in 1:16/1:15 i know about is Verlindens resin kit - i don´t think its convertible to RC.

I remember seeing a german homepage with a 1:10 m113.

21st Century makes a 1/18th scale in both static and R/C. I've seen the R/C version at Walmart and in runs about $50.00.

Hey Phil I found one on ebay, great price with no reserve. I have the very same one that I got from Walmart, plan to pull it apart and detail it out. It's a Ultimate Soldier 1/18 M113A2

Raido Control ones go for $39.99 on ebay as well.

Lol Erik, give in - you want it - so, just buy it :-) financing is cheap nowadays

Joe....Oh man.....you want to do a destructive construction huh I think the only people in the world to have these thought are scale modeller

Jan, by the way, what language is that on the website that got another modeller droooollling......

Let me forward my wish list to some of the manufacturing and see if I get any response ......

Its german, prices are below on site, and are as follows for the 1/16 m113:

Bausatz mit Motoren und Beschlagteilen (Kit with engines and fittings) 790,- Euro

Modell mechanisch fertig montiert, unlackiert (assembled kit - unpainted) 1.100,- Euro

Modell mechanisch fertig montiert und lackiert (Assembled kit - painted) 1.355,- Euro

No RC gear included - but you can get prices if you ask.

I hold no responsibility for the quality of the translation :-) or the reliablity of the manufactor

Hi Philip;

Here's the link http://21stcenturytoys.com/ but I couldn't find the M113 anywhere. The R/C version looks just like the static one, probably minus the interior.
