Hi all,im a newbie to this,ive been building rally cars and raceing motorcycels for many years, but after smashing myself to bits last year i can no longer do this, ive allways had a thing for tanks and love the movie BATTLE OF THE BULGE so tommorow im picking up two HENLONG RC TANKS, a TIGER 1 PRO and BULLDOG PRO, has anyone got any pointers on these and the best way to make them go at scale speeds as they look way to fast,thanks in advance Andy

Hi Andy and welcome to the forum! You can replace the gearboxes in both tanks there are loads of different types of gearboxes you can buy! You need 3.1 gear boxes or even 4.1 these are available on eBay ! Or you could try welshdragon models on line. he sell loads of very good quality upgrade parts for henglong and all over makes!!!! Hope that helps you! :thumbup:
