I've been looking for a tank that is ready to run and is ready for IR battle, I've checked the taigen website but those tanks are a bit out of my budget. Any help would be appreciated

I think the cheapest are the Torro-WSN IR tanks. They do a Tiger 1 and T34. Look on the Torro.de Web site. €119. However, I believe they are only compatible with each other. They are fairly basic - no smoke units. They also use their own 9.6 volt batteries.

Are you looking to battle in your backyard or something with a club? If the latter you need something Tamiya compatible

There's nothing ready to run Tamiya compatible, you'll need to install 3rd party electrics to make anything but a Tamiya battle.

Would an HL with a mako board be enough?

You'd probably need a Tamiya apple too as those henglong ones aren't great and depending on the club probably wouldn't be upto standard
