RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Today I went to TaigenTanks.com and got the "GoDaddy" face page.
Can't pull them up. Even went to Google to bring up the site.
What am I missing? Thanks.

Von Steiner

Just got a blank page.

Good afternoon,
I believe that they have consolidated their site. Eric\Erik is IMEX and they are the best US seller of Taigen\Torro tanks and parts. Try this link: http://www.imex-model.com/category/87/R ... gures.html
regards,

Thanks again for the information you have provided recently. Really appreciate it.
Was going to order the metal drive assembly, Metal tracks and metal sprockets today from Taigen.
Glad they consolidated (Imex).
Think I will hold off for a few days.

Erik has been doing a lot of work to the website lately, and it's kind of a work in progress. They're having major tropical storm action there right now so things are a bit crazy, but I know he's got a lot of cool features to add and it should be growing by leaps and bounds. I'll see if I can get us any links to the new stuff.

What tank are you getting sprockets for? Are you in the U.S.?

Max;
Yea, Sacramento, Ca.
What I did was order another HL M41 Walker Bulldog. The base model with upgrades like sound (tx-18?),
smoke...But the 2.4GHz radio is what I really wanted and it comes with it.

I can get the metal drive sprockets for $8 U.S. dollars but was thinking... do I need metal idlers and
other stuff besides the metal drive gear package and the metal tracks?

I have plastic idlers and roadwheels on my Imex/Taigen m-41 and haven't had any trouble at all. One of my best running tanks. I have lots of parts, so keep me posted on what you're doing and maybe I can help. Are you going for historical accuracy? The Bulldog in 1/16 has some serious flaws, and the way i understand it the model is actually a bit big for the scale. Can't remember his name off hand, but there's a guy at RCU, maybe here too, that has a gazillion Bulldogs and is quite the aficionado on the model, so maybe he'll chime in. One thing I think you might want to add is the travel lock for the main gun, and if that's so I have one here I'll mail you. No charge, even. I have a bunch of sprues of extra M41 parts so if you need anything I'll try to help. The one thing I still haven't figured out is the smoke fluid. I'd like to be able to add fluid without having to take the damn thing apart! That tank has a very, very cool smoke effect.

So now you have two M-41s, but only one is 2.4 GHz? I can hook you up with a 2.4 GHz system for the other one, if you want. Cheap, even.

Just had a look, and the website has been re-designed. It has more on offer at first sight, easier to navigate than previously, and even includes a video from none other than our valued semi-legendary contributor Max-U52 (..I thought 'semi' would sound suitably modest, Gary not to embarrass you unduly )
Here's the link:

That wasn't there the last time I looked!
