http://www.rccommand.com/PanzerKampfwagen%20III.php
http://www.rccommand.com/Bulldog.php Both have metal tracks and drives with smoke, sound, and shoot airsoft 6mm BB's. It will also shoot 6mm paintballs. These will be fun.........  Local kitties beware! Mam, I am sorry but I don't know what happened to fluffy and why he is covered in red paint.  I want to have the infrared battle systems put on later so I can get into a battle group. |

I want to do some weathering and ad some accessories for sure. There are also some power upgrade kits for the airsoft units so it could get very interesting. |

I met the owner of the site rccommand at a local RC air show. He was a good guy and answered all of my questions plus gave me a free shirt without even buying anything. He is on rcuniverse in the tank section under the name rccommand. There were a few sites that had a little cheaper prices and cheaper shipping, however this site came highly recommended and it obviously helped meeting the owner in person. They are also the official US distributor for the specific tank manufacturer that makes these. While not as nice as the tamiya kits in theory, it's heck of a lot cheaper than sinking 1k into one tank. Most guys I have seen modify and weather these things anyway. |

Don't know about BL as it doesn't really seem to make since for a low speed tank that relies more on torque. There was some discussion of this in the tank forum on RCU (which was entertaining reading all of the incorrect perceptions of BL) and it just doesn't seem worth while. As for the earlier question on the airsoft velocity it is only around 70 fps, which is rather puny. The upgrade gets you to 170 fps and there is talk of up to 400 fps upgrades in the future. The guys that make these upgrades are located at www.creapingdeathrc.com for anyone who is interested. I liked them just do to the obvious Metallica reference in the name.  They are located in Grapevine, Texas so being so close I should see them by the middle of next week. Anyone looking for further videos should look up Heng Long as that is the brand. |

thats soooo cool . i hope you will make some videos. i always wanted to see how rc tanks run. imma go check youtube right now actaully haha.
aqwut- yes it does shoot bbs ...plastic 6mm bb's. not the copper ones that bb guns use. these plastic ones are a bit bigger than the coppers. do you know how many fps the turrent shoots out the bb's. i am a airsoft hobbyist and have a few airsoft guns. they are just as expensive hobby as rc's man. the upgrading is addicting just as well. |
