Mine would be the big clockwork tank with rubber tracks, a turret that swung from side to side, and the tank commanders head would pop up through the hatch. It was powerful enough to climb over a foot placed in its path. Always wanted one of those. Would have quite liked a Mamod traction engine too. Could afford one know, but I guess my tastes have changed. Never mind

very difficult to fly, apparently, but would love to try. Preferably with a bomb release so that you could drop flour bombs etc as required.

Whassisname of Discovery H+L was flying one occassionally on his build-a-chopper series. It did look like fun, and the "expert" certainly made it look far easier than it was!
