Is there a way to solve the throw tracks problem of the Henglong German tank?
Is there a way to solve the throw tracks problem of the Henglong German tank?
Every time the tank spins in the sand, it's throw tracks. Sherman, Abrams, Mercaba, can manage to drive,
but panzer3, panther, it's still throw tracks.
How can I get better?

The real tanks could not do pivot turns for this reason. Doing wide turns will help.

Install track tensioners.

The best place to stick the inaccurate Heng Long Decals is the nearest bin

They have the potential to ruin a great model.
Otherwise nice work.

I think I am about to upset someone

kanggji2: I believe sand is the sort of surface most likely to put side forces on the tracks, so I do agree with Meter rat that wide turns will be advisable. I do agree with Kaczor that track tensioners will help, but apparently you have already tried that solution. I did not know that track tensioners were offered on HengLong tanks. Did you add them? If so, what brand did you add? Maybe identified the tensioners you are using will help others who have used the same.
I don't know any Korean sellers of RC tank parts, but maybe DKLM in Hong Kong could be of help: https://www.dklmrc.com/page/about. I wish I could help you more.

Thank you for your response. Some products in Henglong include tensioner as standard. However, the completeness was not very good, I will buy another tensioner and apply it as you advised.Herr Dr. Professor wrote: ↑Sun Nov 03, 2024 5:01 pm kanggji2: I believe sand is the sort of surface most likely to put side forces on the tracks, so I do agree with Meter rat that wide turns will be advisable.
