Hellow from Indiana

Post by Gundogblue »

Hi all,
My name is Paul and I’m new to this forum, I live in a very rural part of central Indiana. I’m one of the old geezers, my loves are shooing long-range tactical
Riding my motorcycle, and playing the guitar. I served in the U.S. Army from 1969 to 1972, and did a tour in Nam. I’ve always wanted to get an RC tank,and since I’ve had both knees replaced this winter I thought this is the perfect time to get a tank. I just bought a HL Sherman Pro, it came just yesterday, so I’m gonna open it up today. I’m really looking forward to learning about RC tanks, it seems like it’s gonna be a great hobby.

Hello Gundogblue. Welcome from Argyll and Bute.
You don’t get wiser as you get older. You just run out of stupid things to do.

I am sorry about the knees (mine ache, creak, and snap, but I'm still holding out). I am delighted to learn that you have Sherman! If you ignore the somewhat inaccurate (although satisfying) sound, the HengLong upgraded versions are rather durable and run smoothly, even a accurate low speeds. Tell us more! Ask questions. Join in the fun. Show us photos if you like. We're eager to hear how it's going :clap: .
