Me too lol thinks it's got to be the tamiya system it seems it's the one every one is Useing to battle with and it can be moded to work with the rx18 but I think I will have to change to the tamiya DMD or the elmod so I can use extra servos the tamiya battle system you can get for about £50 pounds not cheap but once you have got it that's it! The heng long battle systems only compatable with the same system but the tamiya one is compatable with others . You can program how many hits it will take to nock out your tank! So fir a stug it would be 3 hits and for our tigers it would be 9 hits lol! :thumbup:

Yeah agree if for those people interested in club vs club meets the Tamiya route is only option. But no arm in people who already have HL battle system having battles at club meet level.

Other Tamiya compactable systems I know about are David’s battle system and SLU (Sound and light unit) both these are from America & Canada so unfortunately you’ve international post plus import tax on the total!
