Hi, If someone needs to adjust suspension on T-34 Heng Long. To look more real and make it sensitive, here is the video:

I've done something similar but without altering the springs. The main issue is then track tension - there's not enough slack to remove a link so they skip. Fixable with aftermarket adjuster but I couldn't be bothered.

Did you try adjuster on front wheel which is already on model?

I also have done a similar mod, and clocked the springs to soften the middle ones.
I leave the rear spring firm as the rear mounted gearbox on the T34 causes sag over time.

Didn't think there was one on the older HL? I'd better have a closer look.

None on the older ones.
I think that idea kicked in on the recent V7's
