4.0 out of 5 stars RC Tank, December 25, 2008

This review is from: 1:16 RC German Tiger I Tank Remote Control w/ Sound and Smoke (Toy)

At first, we thought that we had a defective product. To get it to move, we had to be touching the hand unit to the tank to get it to communicate. After checking the hand RC control, we figured out that you must first take the back panel off the control box, push the antenna through the hole at the top, and then screw in the antenna directly to the circuit board at the bottom. Once all that is done, the tank operates wonderfully! The radio range is great! My son is having a great time with it...real fun toy!

This review is from: 1:16 RC German Tiger I Tank Remote Control w/ Sound and Smoke (Toy)

Great Product. Seriously, it really is great. I study Wars and Military history extensively, and this tank is right on. A very excellently detailed by Heng Long. My advice would search youtube for demo videos before buying, though.

The tank as an R/C toy, however, is only decent. The sound, light, airsoft, and smoke are very, very nice, but the R/C functions can go a little haywire when used indoors.

This is a very good product a very very low price. I would suggest that if you are looking just for a R/C airsoft tank, get this one. THe Tiger is a classic.

However, be sure to check the seller's rating before purchasing. I purchased mine from Amazing Tech Depot, and while the tank was fine, the contents inside were not. The smoke bottle had been opened and was leaking, the bb's were all over, and when i contacted the seller to ask about details, i got a very rude and upsetting answer.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good RC Tank but needs upgraded, January 28, 2010

Ok I have had mine for a week. No problems. The front drive sprocket came off but I just put it back on. The screw was lose so I checked all the screws for the wheels and found more lose ones. I really enjoyed running the tank. It can climb and go over things, but use some caution, as it is not a real tank. The track, wheels, and suspension are plastic. The airsoft gun fires the bb's fairly hard and engine sound is good if a tad loud. The manual is not easy to understand. The battery will only last about 20 - 25 minutes as noted. The good news is you can upgrade the battery. I just ordered two 3800 Mah batteries and a better charger for a little over $60.00 from Amazon (Search under 7.2v batteries). The original battery was a 1700 Mah. I think this will more then double the running time. This tank can be upgraded in a variety of ways. You can get parts to change it to a late version Tiger. In addition, you can upgrade the tracks and gears to metal (Some are sold already upgraded and I wished I would have gone that route). The frame and suspension can be upgraded to metal as well. For those really into accuracy, there are places to get parts that are more detailed. Some sites to help:

There is a lot of stuff out there. These tanks are not perfect, but they are good. For the price they are a good deal for playing as is or a good starting point for more detail and upgrading. Just for the record I got my tank form Xheli Inc on Amazon. Have fun.
