Hello

Post by Legendsario »

Hello everyone, I’m somewhat new to the rc tank scene and was looking for some forums with people with more experience than me. Currently have a modded taigen tiger 1 with fpv and Clark tk22 as well a stock henglong Sherman. Right now I’m in the process of trying to really improve the efficiency of the standard airsoft guns inside of the tiger with a bunch of ideas. So that’s why I’m here to pick your guy’s brain and see if we can fix a common problem with these rc tanks.

Hello again, and thank you for your introduction :thumbup:

You have my preferred two Taigen/Heng Long tanks, do you have any plans to do much to the Sherman?

Again, welcome to the forum.

I do plan on doing some cosmetics to the Sherman but not until I feel satisfied with the tigers gun. Currently I live in Virginia, United States and would like to find a rc tank club around here but haven’t had much luck.

You have the advantage of being in the same state as the AAF Museum at Danville. If nobody here speaks up then I'd suggest keeping an eye on their website and facebook for when the tank battles will resume there, and then go along and talk to the guys - somebody will know what is going on around your local area.

Hello Legendsario,

Great to have you on board! Nice set of tanks you've got there. We were just having a discussion about Airsoft tanks, any improvements would be great! It's my juvenile nature that makes me enjoy zinging those BB's around! :haha:

Cheers,
Eric.

Whatever you do DO NOT use the supplied BB Pellets,
They have a nasty habit of jamming and damaging the internal flexi-seal in the "Airsoft" gun. :thumbdown:
There are plenty of suppliers out there who will sell you seamless 6mm BB pellets for "Pennies/Cents".

Just to add a little environmental awareness: Buying biodegradable BBs is a good idea. They are more expensive, but the positive effect is obvious. It says they are completely gone after a year or something... and the quality in comparison to normal BBs is equal.
