New to all this

Post by walker bulldog »

Hi all I am new to RC Tanks and live in Kent UK
I have just ordered myself a Taigen Walker Bulldog M41 pro RC Tank 2.4GHz .
I have been looking for a good entry grade tank and hope I have chosen well may be you have a opinion on this good or bad
I have also just started to build a RC Tank Launched Bridge or (AVLB) just for the fun of it
and Hope to meet other members to help me along with my lack of knowledge thanks ;D ;D

Welcome aboard, and good choice on the M41. I have one (one of my first tanks) and think it's great. I converted mine to have two different hull tops (kinda like two tanks in one) and I take any excuse I can find to trot out the video. @) @)

and here she is with the stock hull top back on

So what do you think you'll get for your second tank? You do realize you've signed up for an extremely addicting hobby from which there is no escape, right? :lolno: @) 8)

Yes, I've been to a couple of the SEAG meetings in Tunbridge Wells organized by Ad Lav. Well worth the effort as you get to learn a lot and see some really impressive models.
