Sorry, my bad
I'm getting my designations mixed up.
But in 1/35 scale it is big, speaking of which my 1/16 RC Tiger tank arrived today. I'm just waiting for the battery to charge up so I can start shooting at things
Yes the gun shoots BB's.
If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.

I've got 5 of those BB firing tanks. Tiger Mk1, Leopard II, Panther camouflage, M26 Pershing, and an M1A1 Abrams. I have a Jagdpanther and Sturmtiger on my wish list.

Way above on my wishlist is an RC Hetzer, but as far as I know Neither Tamiya nor Heng Long makes these models.

Next will be a KV-1, then a Jagdpanther, then we'll see.
I'm just astounded at the detail and accuracy of the thing.(mine is a Heng long)
I got it off Ebay for $60.00Aus with free delivery.
P.s how long does it take to charge the 7.2v battery?

Mine never take more than 20-30 minutes, but thats because I have battery chargers that cost more than 10 times the tank is worth. I've never charged them on the charger Heng Long supplied, but I guess it may well take over 10 hours for the first charge and 2-3 hours after that as that is what the Traxxas charger did for my brother in law's Slash battery.

I was looking at that, and it looks really cool, but I doubt I'd get it to work under Linux.

It only took an hour for the intitial charge and I'm still waiting for the battery to run down.
Bloody hell the gun works well, we're going to have to get a cat now

No on you life (you know I hate the competition) and if you don't park that thing up at night I WILL tread on it!!!
Seriously it is a good looking tank

Are they still the 1700mAh yellow stickpacks? I've swapped mine out for 4500's and they last all day. I let the kids drive them in the pit area when we're working on the robots.

That airsoft system is quite good and durable. The standard drive train is a bit iffy, there are metal gear upgrades if you plan to use it in sand and grass but they are okay for living rooms and tiles and carpet.
