Heng Long 1/16 Scale R/C German Sturmtiger BB Tank
(New Sound & Smoking Version)
WARNING
ALL R/C TANK BUYERS!
It
has come to our attention that a number of eBay vendors are claiming to represent
us and using our images and text. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations and don't
be surprised if the tank you ordered is from old stock sent direct from China/Hong
Kong and take a long time to arrive. You may be liable to pay import duties and
VAT.
We
advise that you read their Ts & Cs and particularly their disclaimers carefully.
Make sure their credentials are geuine. Are they who they claim to be? Will they
be around to help if thing goes wrong? Feedback is not always reliable. Also note
the cost of all the optional extras and lead time like for 6 days for "Heng
Long Mechanical Engineers" to fit upgrade parts. The Heng Long factory does
not install upgrade parts individually on request and they don't dispatch direct
to customers.
Please
note that Tankzone does not sell Heng Long R/C Tanks on eBay. Tankzone only stock

The
Perfect Present
This
is a 1/16 scale fully painted and assembled replica of the German king Tiger Tank
featuring radio-controlled of all movement including turret rotation and gun elevation.
It features full suspension and a main gun that fires BB pellets up to 25 meters!
Excellent value for money and a big improvement on the previous non-sound/smoking
version. A great introduction to large scale radio controlled tanks.
BB Firing !
This
Tank Actually Shoots!
Don't forget to buy some extra
BB pellets!
This
tank actually shoots 6mm plastic BBs from a fully automatic motorised firing system
using self-generated compressed air. These can hit a target up to 25m away. The
tank can fire while on the move or stationary and can hold up to 40 BBs in the
turret. A box of pellets is included to get you started.
Radio
Transmitter Unit
Full
Function Radio Control
The
model comes with a dedicated control transmitter unit with its own on/off switch
and a 'On' indicator light. The transmitter requires 8 AA alkaline batteries (not
included). The new version has a frequency crystal instead of the built-in 3 selectable
frequencies on the old version. The trim levers on the right joystick actually
works!
Function
Buttons
The three central buttons near the bottom of the transmitter have the functions
of:
[Engine

The
BB gun will only fire if the safety switch hidden underneath the loader's hatch

gun is about to fire. A red rubber plug is also supplied for the cannon when run
in non-firing mode.

Exhaust
Smoking Function
This
tank comes with a built-in smoke generator to provide exhaust smoking function.
The smoke comes out of the rear exhaust when the engine is running. It can be
switched off via a switch underneath the tank within the battery compartment !?!
Add a few drops of oil from the bottle supplied into the tubes inside the exhausts
periodically.
The
Tiger 1 has working front lights.

Changeable
Frequency
The
operational frequency of each tank can be changed by simply replacing the crystal
on the transmitter and on the tank by a set with a different frequency. The replaceable
transmitter crystal plugs into a socket to the right of the three function buttons.
The receiver crystal is underneath the tank within the battery compartment. The
two crystals must be the same frequency for the tank to operate. Do not operate
tank of the same frequency close to each other or erratic behaviour may result
and cause possible damage to tank and people.
With
multiple sets of different frequency crystals, you can run more than one tank
at the same time and battle
with friends for extra fun! Use crystals in the 27MHz range.
Rechargeable
Battery and Charger
This
tank comes with a 7.2V Ni-Cad rechargeable battery and charger suitable for use
in the UK. Oversea customers will need a converter/transformer. The charger needs
about 7 to 8 hours for a full charge. Running time per full charge can be as long
as 30 minutes depending on pattern of play.
Warning!
Because of the power of the BB gun, they can cause pain and bruising if exposed
skin is struck at close range and severe eye injury if they strike someone in
the eye. These items are therefore not recommended or children under 18 years
of age without parental supervision. They are sold only to adults 18 years and
over. Wearing of eye protection goggle is also highly recommended.
