Re: RTR Chieftain
Why doesn't everyone apart from Andrew go to the link in ROBWs initial start to this thread ?
All the questions that have so far been asked are answered in that link.

Re: RTR Chieftain
Slow down there, Shaun, I did go to the link and searched thoroughly and couldn't find a brand name anywhere. From what I've read here it's a "Haya Brand Tank"? Is this a first for Haya? Since Andrew made it crystal clear it's not a Heng Long maybe we should call it "The Haya Chieftain"?jarndice wrote:Why doesn't everyone apart from Andrew go to the link in ROBWs initial start to this thread ?

Re: RTR Chieftain
Sure is nice.
Whatever it’s brand, just having one as a relatively mass produced option is great for the hobby.
Thanks for posting it Mr Haya, I hope sales go very well .

Re: RTR Chieftain
My understanding is that "HAYA" Commissioned the build and if you click on the "HAYA" tag on the Link it clearly states that "HAYA" is a UK RC Manufacturer.

I've heard about this, just never knew the proper terminology to try and prevent it. Now I know, it's "You're not shooting that right, Dummy!!" Good to know.

Re: RTR Chieftain
That's a very important public service announcement Rad. There is not enough awareness around VVS.
