RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hi,

I have a Tiger 1 and a King Tiger with ir sensors. Haven’t used them for a few years but looking to give them a service and fix the tiger 1’s broken ‘axles’? Might need some help with that!

Look forward to talking with you again soon!

Regards


Matt

Welcome back: Nothing like a Tiger or Königstiger to get ya rollin' again. (Meter Rat will disagree, and I see his point, too.) Fire away with those questions, for there are so many here much more capable than I who can actually answer them.

Welcome back from Argyll and Bute. There seems to be an influx of returning people.

Not necessarily.
I will concede that if said German object, encourages an ex member to return to the loving buxom of this forum, then so be it. There just doesn’t need to be so many of them. It’s good that all views can be considered.

Likewise. There doesn't need to be so many grumpy old Scotsmen....

Hello and welcome back Matt

Hold on. Are you referring to German Tigers and not returning members?

I have a heng long tiger 1 and the suspension arms for the idler wheels have broken. Probably as a result of some stones getting caught up in the tracks. One side has only broken one the other side has broken 3.

My questions are how do I replace them and what are the parts called where can I get them from.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards

Oh and how do I attach pictures to posts??

Sounds like a great forum with some good banter!

Welcome back from Ontario, Canada!
Probably find them as suspension arms, and folks like Toucan Hobby (on both Aliexpress and ebay), Heng Long store (Aliexpress), Forgebear Tanks (UK online), Matomart (USA and Canada) should have them listed.

Pics would help confirm, and as for pics, there's help in the faq section, but it's pretty easy. Go to the "full editor and preview" tab at the bottom of your posting window. Click it, and then click the 'add attachments" button. Import you image (<3mb otherwise resize), place inline where you'd like and done. Kind of clunky but you get used to it.

Mike.

Welcome aboard! I swapped my HL lower for a Taigen metal lower. Big improvement and great running gear with no hassle.

Returning members. Not so much Tigers.

I am only grumpy because I have not had my quota of Haggis, Tripe, and Malt Whisky.

MattD, as you can tell there is a bit of North-South banter. Especially when SOAG has over dosed on jellied eels.
