Hello Jack and welcome to the Forum!

If you are looking for an RC tank club there realy are not many in England infact two propper clubs exist for 1/16 scale tanks.The Manchester Armoured Division is your nearest club based in Hyde Manchester they meet every third sunday of every month at there indoor club building.
They will be at the Yorkshire wartime experience in July 4/5/6th putting on a show with a large outdoor battlefield and Forgebear tanks will be there helping support the club with parts back up and Gala tents.
Heres the postcode for our club building
Post code SK14 2PU.

The second club is The RC Tank Regiment.
They are based down south and also have arranged meets weather it be at a military show or at a hired location.

Both clubs IR Battle useing Tamiya compatable battle systems.

Hope that helps you on the club side of things

Best Regards Gary- M.A.D chairman. :thumbup:

Hi Jack, I am Mark another member from M.A.D the address of the Yorkshire Wartime Experience is Hunsworth Lane, Bradford BD4 6RN. We will be there for the 3 days and hope the weather is as good as last year. There will be our club stand there as Gary said but also full size military vehicles and re enactments. It is a fantastic show!
