            If you want a big build I think you'll be disappointed with a 1/32 combine.
            Large? Well for a toy but to convert one to RC, I think a bit on the small side. Making the one shown work...
            You can get some big tractors in 1/16 scale you can convert but not a lot of building in those either.
            Now a 1/4 or a 1/6 scale tank or armoured car all in metal and full RC... I can see you enjoy building one of those...

                  Chris,
                  Now that is something different. I will pull up a chair and watch with interest.

                    Chris all I did was to type 'Claas Trion 720 Kit, UK' into Messrs Google and a load of prices popped up ranging from £130 to £185.

                            Well, looking at my screenshot the first two are eBay and the cheapest. Now EBay do take PayPal. Which is why I don't use eBay as it was through PayPal I was scammed. (They allowed some A-Hole to empty my credit card then said they weren't responsible). Now my credit card company - refunded all my cash that was scammed and indeed it was them who drew my attention to the scam initially!!)
                            So for me - PayPal - no chance.
                            Credit Card - yes thank you. At least CC companies honour the financial guidelines!!!
