hello from south wales

Post by huskydog »

Hello from south wales,uk. just thought I would say hello to everyone on here. I'm looking forward to getting back into r/c tanks. Have still got a Tamiya king tiger from about 11 years ago, and the running chassis of the original tamiya leopard from about 30 years ago. looking at the purchase of a henglong leopard 2 to start as a project(would have liked a Tamiya one but to expensive). Any advice on this project will be welcome. hope to hear from anyone with any advice.

£186.00 delivered. much better quality than I was expecting. not as good as Tamiya but not to bad. just requires a few mods and go faster parts lol.
