Newbie to tanks

[Nohj498]

Hi there,
Pre COVID and hopefully after I race RC 1/12 scale stock cars, but boredom set in and I bought a Heng Long Tiger 1 which needed repairing.
That's up and running so have now bought Taigen Tiger 1 metal chassis, and top deck which I've started modding into a late mark Tiger 1.
Few questions are What is best electronics to run lipos as I have spares from racing , which radio gear is recommended and how easy is it to use H/L electrics with Taigen and vice versa.
As you can see I've a lot to learn
Cheers
John

Welcome! All you need to know is here so run a few searches and do a lot of reading! It's all absorbing stuff so not an imposition! Like you, l have lots of lipos from other RC hobbies but not all tank systems are lipo compatible so l'd recommended you get hold of some high capacity NiMhs. Tanks do not require high discharge rated cells and run for rather longer than race cars!
