Heng Long v6.0 tank - laser beam ?

Post by mrmrmrmr »

Hi,

I've just received my Heng Long tank today.
It has lots of features that I'm trying to learn/understand.

On the user manual, there's information about laser beam for targetting (I guess). It says that when I press button B (for bullets) , it will also turn on the laser beam.
However, there's no visible beam or pointer.
Is there any action to activate it , or is it a fake feature ?

Thanks.

Before we get to answering your question we would like you to go to the introductions page on the Forum where you can tell us about your location, your reason for taking up this hobby and whether or not you have access to limitless funds because this gets expensive very quickly :haha:
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

That might be a reference to the red LED light beside the main gun. It lights up letting you know it’s about to fire a BB.

This is news to me but upgrades are always being introduced. What tank is it and does it fire plastic 6mm BB bullets? If not, then is it a infra red battle system beam that its referring to?

A laser aiming beam is a good way of targeting but is it 'sporting' ;)

Chinese instructions can sound a little silly but they make cool rc tanks.

It is an option for future upgrade.
It also has a switchable power output for a camera

If it's a basic Heng long Tank,I'm surprised the are all it's options-if a BB shot,it's Jimster who's right,in the infra red version is the mechanism Asiatam,the capture for the Infra Rouge in the tank commander dome,photos would be more explicit
