Yes, I am back to building tanks! Meet the Type 89, or "I-Go", a Japanese medium tank. Medium tank? Yes, it is a medium tank. Strange, huh? This little bucket of bolts doesn't have much to boast, but it is very fun tank to watch in the show Girls Und Panzer. In this show, the Type 89 is operated by Ooarai High School, and is crewed by a group of volley ball players, who are veiwed as "muscle brains" by the rest of the tank crews. This particular model has a flag, as it was Ooarai's fl... lag tank in the battle against Pravda. How do I drive this thing? To drive, use pitch, and to steer, use roll. Remember that there is no need to constantly accelerate, or over steer. For turret traverse, us VTOL, and for gun laying, use trim. To activate your defensive machine guns, use group 1. They shoot and pivot with the main gun respsctively. Just mind the flag whilst turning the turret, and try to avoid blowing yourself up. Now, this tank does feature suspension, but I couldn't find any information on what type of suspension it was, so went ahead and implemented my own. If anyone wants it to be changed, please leave a link to some plans, so I can modify it, and post it as a special version. Oh, and those things I said about the Pershing aren't going to stop me from building it, just keep in mind that you peeps like, and I don't... Enjoy!   read more
