RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hi guys,

Ok a little about me i ve been into model making for many years,
Just saving up for my first r/c tank so hoping to learn from u vets lol.

Sarge,
Welcome to the Forum! What kind of tank are you looking for? It's sort of a Golden Age of RC Tanking right now with so many good models to choose from. Even more if you don't mind a bit of detailing, paint, figures, styrene, electronics, etc...etc... ;o)
regards,
Painless

Welcome to the forum sarge, get used to an empty wallet because this hobby is seriously habit-forming! Happy tanking and don't forget to check the recommended suppliers and supplier blacklist section before ordering anything. Alwyn

Well i am into all things ww2 so the tank has to be from that period. Was thinking of the HL tiger 1 and taking it apart and doing my own paint job. Then changing the tracks along with wheels and suspention as metal tracks r heavy so original plastic wud b too weak to support same over time so brass r metal 3:1 gearbox.

G'day mate & happy St Pats day.(late-but I assume you're just ditching the hangover !)
Tiger 1 is a gimme for your first 'fix' then after that, each one you do is all about rehab !

Please take the time to look through all the pages of historical builds, there have been some mind bending examples that serve as reference pieces, and good ideas for any project.
Welcome in

Hello and welcome sarge we're not all vets recently got my first tank a tiger 1 as Herman said an excellent choice just came in from patrolling the garden and the battery is on charge for the afternoon patrol!!!

Hi again lads well thx for the belated pats day grt to hetar from ya all r/c tanks in Ireland does not seem to be such a big thing as cars and flight but hell sum more of us nuts hav to b out there;).

Sarge welcome to the Forum, with you taking up this hobby it bodes well for the Irish economy, cos only the very rich or those in the good books with their bank manager can afford it, I hope you enjoy this place, we do. shaun

Jeez not sure about the rich part may end up singing on the street lol

Good to see another Irish modeler on here.
