Hi, I have tried most things radio controlled and I am now looking at trying my hand at an rc tank. I have spent the last couple of days trawling the internet for information on this side of the rc hobby world. At the moment I am looking at the Taigen full metal upgrade king tiger.
I don't have a bottomless pocket so the Tamiya is not really an option a the moment and the above tank seems to fit the bill for me, however I can't seem to find anywhere that sells it in the UK except Nitrotek which has got itself a bad name, so if anyone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
Thank you.
hello.

Re: hello.
Hey Pops,
Welcome to the forum, you found a great place with tons of knowledge. They're two members on this forum who sell tanks and accessories, try Dave at Forgebear (E-Bay) and Steve with Welsh Dragon. They may be able to hook you up with a great runner. Good luck...

Re: hello.
Hi and welcome.
I believe Welsh Dragon are a UK importer for Taigen. Speak to Steve from there and he will probably be able to get what you want. Forgebear on ebay is also a great way to go for what you are looking for, Dave gives great customer service. I use them both regularly and would recommend them to anyone.
Whilst I have personal not had an issue with Nitrotek I know many people have had difficulties in getting issues resolved with them. If possible I would avoid using them.
Enjoy what ever you decide to buy.
