I'm new to this and am looking for my first tank?

Post by GeorgeK »

Hi all,
I'm just getting into this RC Tank thing and now I am wondering what tank I should buy. I am interested in buying a Heng Long Tiger/King Tiger or Panther . Seems as I have just started I am looking for something under or around £100. I have found 2 already but would like to know what you guys think and any recommendations/links you have.
Thanks,
George K

I believe both are the same tank, Heng Long. Both Smoke and Sound versions, which is what you want. Other than that, I cant really tell you much, Im new here too, welcome aboard though. The pros will be with you shortly.

second the hl tiger is good but needs some work to make it a great runner, where as the new hl panther is a good one straight from the box as is the hl panzer III,
regards, ice

Yep, have to agree the HL Panther is a great out of the box tank, and if you buy from Dave (Forgebear) im sure all his tanks come with metal gearboxes, and i know they come with a great service :thumbup: He is a member here, maybe PM him for more details.
