New Tanker from USA
Hello everyone, 54 yr old man from California and new to rc tanks but not rc. That being said I just purchased the Tamiya German Leopard 2 A6 Full Option 1/16 Scale Heavy Tank and some upgrades from King kong hobbies. I look forward to learning about the rc tank hobby and meeting new friends.

Re: New Tanker from USA
I take it that you have been on another forum for some time. I really like the handle, BrownLettuce1970.
A Tamiya Leopard 2 A6 is quite a start on AFVs. I need to look up "King kong hobbies" as I lived in L.A. when you were 10 years old
and am still curious. Welcome to the fun!

Welcome from Ontario, Canada!
I think you'll enjoy building up that Leopard.

Welcome. Be careful with some of those King Kong RC upgrades. There is a guy on YouTube called Pitstain that installed them. There were major fitment issues with the chassis. Their parts don't have the greatest reputation for fitment and quality on the Leo.
