Hi, gentlemen!
In January 2014. I found on the ebay an interesting model - Sd.Kfz.2 Kettenkrad 1:16. It was selling as non r/c model and I won the bidding on it! It time that it came to me, I found some info on the I-net about this model and I found out, that it is possible to make it r/c!
When model arrives, it turned out that there's no motor and gearbox in it... I wrote to the xion.de and got the answeer, that theese parts will be awailable only after aprox 6-8 months...
But then I found on the ebay another kettenkrad. It was partly built and it cames with all necessary electronics, battery, charger and driver figure!
And here comes some photos:

Small uprgade of the Kettenkrad:

The work on the Sd.Kfz. 2 was still going on. As the steering of this model was terrible - it didn't steers on the sand or the grass at all, on the internet was found good solution. It was necessary to take out the genuine gearbox with one motor and replace it with custom gearbox with two motors. But there was small problem with control unit, that allows to manage both motors in the same tame with steering servo. On the German webpage rc-panzerketten-forum.com I found info about control unit, specially made for halftracked vehicles:



The custom gearbox was made in two evenings:

I took my Ketten outside for a walk:

Starting for my second Kettenkrad:

As I could understand from your posts, there were wrong letters on the license plate. Aprox month ago I bought another decals, so now they would be right ones.

Yesterday I worked aprox 3 hours and made this thing:





This is what I'm trying to make:



There it is mounted on the Kettenkrad:
