RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hello Fellow Tankers!

I'm Phil, from Perth, Australia.
I recently got a job in a hobby store over here, and I thought I would buy something with my first paycheck.
I thought about a car, but everyone has a car, or a plane, and I am an aviation guru, but they are too easy to crash.
So I decided on an R/C Tank. I've never heard of anyone having one, and what can you crash a TANK into?!

Being an avid World of Tanks player (Playername: phantom_270 ), I was quite keen. I looked for a Tiger II, but they didn't have one, so I settled on a Heng Long Tiger I.

I have to say, it is quite awesome, and I have since bought another battery, and a smart, and quicker charger.

Since playing WoT, I have started a great interest in tanks, and I would love to learn more about them.

So that's my story,

Ciao!

This is my tank, with my little infrared heli

Sorry for the terrible quality.

Thanks.

I have seen a few metal parts out there, and I will probably get a gearbox, drive sprockets, and tracks, to make it more durable

Hi Phil,

Welcome mate, You'll find everything you need here,there are a lot of upgrades you can do. Best thing is to browse the forum and get some ideas. If you don't find it here then it's probably not worth doing!

Enjoy,

Ace
