Torro Tiger 1

Post by Bostick65 »

Hi folks , new to the forum.

Just got a Torro Tiger 1 pro . Finally figured how to operate the smoke as it’s not like the instructions lol. Apparently it’s a v3 . What sort of smoke amount should I be getting from it ? .

I have a heng long challenger and that produces tons of smoke. Didn’t know how different each companies was .

There's an easy way to identify a Taigen or Torro V3. The button on the top right of the V3 transmitter fires the the machine gun. If you open up the hull, you will see a small, closed rectangular box connected to the larger multi-function unit with its fan on top. That smaller box contains the sound card.
I believe Heng Long has developed a new smoke unit that puts out more enough smoke to to replicate mis-timed diesel injectors or worn piston rings. 😆

Yes I'll second Herr Dr. My Taigen/Torro Tiger I V3 does smoke but not alot. They use the older smoke pumps. My 5 Heng Longs all have the new smoke system which churns out smoke on some and flows out smoke on others. But all my Heng Longs put out more smoke than my Taigen.
