The list of links below are companies, individuals and organizations we highly reccomend for your 1:6 scale vehicle and parts needs.
Vehicle Manufacturers
Armortek www.armortek.co.uk
Until recently, Mark and Gill were the only company producing "all-metal" 1:6 scale radio control tanks. They are still the only company offering models with scale thickness armor plates. Armortek has manufactured everything from Flak 36, 8.8cm gun to the massive Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausf B (Tiger II). The models(kits) are released in limiited quantities. The models from Armortek require assembly. The best part about this is it allows time for detailing to your hearts content. Also gives the owner the satisfaction of having "built it" themselves.
Metalbox-Modelswww.metalboxmodels.com
Manufacturers of high-quality, all metal models with accurate detailing and functionality. Metalbox Models has produced the Opel Blitz 3T, a Panzer III Ausf H and a Sturmgeschütz Ausf G (early production). They are released in limited quantities.

Wiggytronicscontact
Richie has the cleanest control boxes and charging point set ups I have seen for large scale RC tanks. He also manufactures smoker units that perform better then anything before, including a new variable controlled smoke unit that allows you to control the amout of smoke, and when. If you want your panzer to have that "belch" of smoke at start up or rev, Richie's set ups are for you. Here's a link to one of his many videos of the smoke unit in action.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF46NSR7CPI
