Hi there Jeff welcome to the forum! Heng long tanks are a good starting platform to get you started! And there's plenty of upgrade parts for them. If you want to improve on detail and reliability! But make sure it's got the RX18 board in it!! That's a must the rest you can change as

you go along! Best regards Gary! AKA The Tank Man!

Hi Welcome to the forum, think your dog might not enjoy being a target. The BB's go at a fair old rate of knots and this could a) damage the dogs eyes if hit and b) have him turn on your tank and wreck it . The Heng Long tanks are quite well built but they are no match for an irate rottweiler!!
