There are only 3 rules, no BB, have fun & all batteries to be charged safely. £5 to play & £5 membership. Try and bring a table cover to avoid scratching the tables. Think that's about it: we're not picky, and even let Mick come back....

I currently own two Heng Long tanks, the stunning king tiger with the Porsche turret and the Walker bulldog. Any tips and advice to newbie are greatly welcome.
Hello Johny, welcome! My name is Bastiaan, I am new to RC tanks as well. You will find here some great info! Your experience as scale model builder will certainly help with weathering and painting. I am also a longtime model builder and I found out it really helps :D

I have a Heng Long Leopard 2a6b and as a newbie I do have to learn it the hard way to improve it, without throwing away all money.

It is an awesome hobby, enjoy!

Thanks for the Facebook GLAD details and the meet details, looking forward to attending. hi john whyte, ha yes it’s definitely my kind of madhouse. Great place to share and enjoy this brilliant hobby.
Hi Bastiaan, I’ve been looking at getting the leopard 2a6 and possibly the t90 at some point but as I’m new to rc like yourself I’m learning just what amazing upgrades are out there from various differnt places. The custom painting and making of Small details on top of tanks ain’t much different to modelling. Replacing circuit boards, motors etc is a completely different area but one I’m looking forward to learning.
