hello, new member

Post by Freetime »

Hello everyone, I'm new here after being handed an r,c tank by a friend. So my first tank is a Heng Long. M413A, walker bulldog. does not fire bb's. dead battery pack, So a few bits to work out before I get going. Some paper work would have been nice but can't have everything. took me a bit of searching to find out what kind or make the tank is.

Welcome! Since you are in the UK, there are umpty zillion (technical term) of others nearby who might help you. And, of course, your questions will be welcome here on RCTW. Your best source for replacement parts is right there in the UK: https://www.forgebeartanks.com/store/c1 ... ducts.html. I did a bit of quick searching, and I don't see batteries for sale through Forgebear, but others might correct me or recommend sources local to you. It would be good to get a decent charger right away, too. As to the BBs not firing, there are lots of possible causes, but diagnosing, fixing, and even replacing is not really all that difficult. (Hey, even I can do it!). Once you get a charged battery into the Bulldog, you can describe the sounds you hear when you try to fire the BBs and we can help. Above all, do not hesitate to ask questions. Jump in and enjoy!
