Yet another Hello

Post by Zed750Jay »

Another new (ish) member here. Had RC tanks ever since the Heng Longs came out. Hailing from darkest Hampshire I am a member of the Portsmouth Model Boat Display Team or PMBDT. We combine our love of RC tanks and pyrotechnics to entertain the public around Hampshire. More famous for our Galleon and WW2 convoy displays on water the tank thing evolved as everyone likes tanks and it now seems to be our main display!

As per usual I have several Heng Long tanks in various stages of modification and sone even work. Most finished is this Pz IV Ausf F2 with the 6.0 board in. Sooooo much better than the previous ones for slow speed control. Image

Sounds like you've discovered the formula for a happy, and contented, life. :thumbup: You can share a few more of its secrets here :D
You're also proof, if any were needed, that the model tank bug is a potent one...

Helen a member of this Forum is also a member of the Portsmouth Model Boat Club, She built a sensational R/C WW1 Tank in large scale.
Hopefully the build is still on this Forum because it is well worth a look. :thumbup:

Helen was at the display we did today and found the new 6.0 boarded Heng Long Pz IV a pleasure to drive. She still has the rather well made and heavy Mk1.
