So today my First ever RC tank arrived. I went for a HengLong 1/16th scale. I have to say I love military history especially the European theatre of WW2. So I went for a German tank.
Panther V. Only have it out the box and checked to make sure it runs. I will have a play with the settings at the weekend. Quite a few things to learn.
Mr Hill, you have a version we know as a Pantiger.................
It is not ever advertised as this, but its an early-early Heng Long hybrid fantasy of a Tiger 1 lower with a Panther A (ish) upper.
Its in no way accurate, but in saying that , few are.
If you are indeed keen on WW2 historical subjects, and wish to salvage some reasonable result from this, please find a way to purchase a Tiger 1 early upper hull & turret, with rear plate..
The new upper will fit straight onto the Pantiger lower, swap out the rear plate, and Voila, you have a Tiger. to start on.
The Pantiger turret & upper hull are useful donors for conversions, but not for the beginner or faint hearted
Or, just use it as a practice run for ideas, techniques and painting & run it to death
