great tank its huge lol, the quality of heng long tanks today are getting better and much cheaper compared to tamiya, heng long will also release their new model T72 with steel gears already mounted on it
Tamiya are silly price RC. More detail but these Heng Long ready built so haven't got to spend a week building. And as i do strip them add your own details and paint weather which to me is the fun bit.
😁👍that's a sweet tank!! throw those BB's out they stink...get some .12 crossman glow in the dark BB's they very good..I also use biodegradable .20 in mine for more accurate shooting.
What are your parameters for the British Challenger Tank? For example; Length, Width, Height, BB Capacity, Projectile FPS, Projectile Distance, Tank Weight.
On the cheaper plastic version the gears are made from Nylon, I’d argue that it is unintentionally better for the vehicle due to nylon’s natural tensile strength, durability and, lubrication, however the plastic drive wheels are a big no no, I’ll be ordering aluminium ones as soon as I can, also, what water resistant spray did you use?
I only reccomend the Steel Gears, Lube them with Lucas Red N Tacky, cover the Gears and have fun. Nylon/Plastic gears literally break easily with a Tank this Weight.
Nice video, i like that tank, great job from Henglong, i alraedy have two RC tanks, the Taigen T34/85 and the Torro Tiger I, now i'd like to get a modern tank and i am in doubt between this one a the Russian T90.
okay okay I concede… This is the most crazy fun fantastically filmed suicide tank run on the Internet… I'm trying to say you're crazy but I already said I concede it's too cool… You submerged your tank !…great driving great video and a great cameraman and you get a thumbs up from me dude… LOL… You're still crazy
I have the panther and the bulldog with metal gears and tracks. No issues with either except the tacks slipping off if I turn to fast which can be a pain. I love my panther but the bulldog is just ok. Its lighter and is rear heavy so its climbing capabilities are not too good.
Like you with your car rc we do the same with armour strip n upgrade! The base shell/Hull and suspension are good to upgrade normally there water tight the sherman and panzer 3 etc is maybe they changed standards from this video I don't know but normally bone dry inside great looking tank's! Torro and Armotek see if you can review one them but more pricey but so amazing!
Yeah, they are not cheap compared to some budget RC Cars/Trucks. But in the Scale RC Tank world they are pretty cheap. A 1/16 Tamiya is about 3 to 4 times the price 👍
A word of caution about the Zinc gears. they will wear a bit quickly and strip. they also sell a version with steel gearboxes. i had to refit my Leopard 2 with those
Little kids watching this be like: 😲 my mom said she is gon a get it for me **sneezes** uh uh **sniff** Like bruh why are kids so dumb btw great tank model and video but you shouldn't have driven it into mud never do that with any tyoe of rc at all
The running and shooting video was wicked. Your video production is great.
Cheers Ian, appreciate the kind words. 👍
Nice job. I really like how you placed the camera for your POV. Very realistic looking as it drives along. 👍👍
great tank its huge lol, the quality of heng long tanks today are getting better and much cheaper compared to tamiya, heng long will also release their new model T72 with steel gears already mounted on it
I saw some pictures of the T72, looks good!
@@TomleyRC agree i also love the looks of kv-1 lots of raised details now i forgot to wait for the wpl's new 8x8 rig because of this tanks lol
Fantastic Tank fantastic review, loved the BB shot on the water 😊 fantastic editing video bro really enjoyed every minute of it 👍😊👍
Cheers Tony, I had quite a few slow mo shots of that, didn't want to put 4 mins of a BB hitting the water though haha.

Sounds good! I'll have a look ;)
The 20s work really well. They shoot slower but the accuracy is sweet.
Beautiful tank, man... Really looks and sounds amazing! 😃
Great video edition!!!
Yes truth
I just got one cause of this review can't wait for it to come lol

Yes the 'Metal' gears are sometimes a little soft or brittle in these Chinese RC's. I used Conformal coating for the ESC 👍
mine had ripped its nylon gears after maybe two months of use. they are not that durable fyi.
I only reccomend the Steel Gears, Lube them with Lucas Red N Tacky, cover the Gears and have fun. Nylon/Plastic gears literally break easily with a Tank this Weight.
That camera work was just superb! Any advice on the camera mount and filming?
Really cool tank...look.s real like a big one..thank.s for the vid...cheer.s ron...
No problem Ron, it's good fun!
I have a Torro and Taigen. Both are the metal IR versions with smoke. I haven't dared to run them through mud though. How did you clean it afterwards?
Nice video, i like that tank, great job from Henglong, i alraedy have two RC tanks, the Taigen T34/85 and the Torro Tiger I, now i'd like to get a modern tank and i am in doubt between this one a the Russian T90.
Maybe you'll need to get both 🙃
@@TomleyRC to much for my, also i am makeing a Stug III by my own...i must to choose...
Me tooo, idk which one to get, this or the t90? may I ask what you went for?
@@TomleyRC would you recommend me bringing this thing to a airsoft field?
okay okay I concede… This is the most crazy fun fantastically filmed suicide tank run on the Internet… I'm trying to say you're crazy but I already said I concede it's too cool… You submerged your tank !…great driving great video and a great cameraman and you get a thumbs up from me dude… LOL… You're still crazy
I forgot that Tom was once a tank mechanic from the army.
He was?

Love it. About time we had a tank lol😎
My first Tank, and it's awesome!

Heng long is not cheap. 😂
Cheap compared to Tamiya Tanks :)
@@TomleyRC definitely
@TomleyRC so should have put cheater alternative not cheap it makes it sound like it's shit
Great video however I have an alternative view on cheap.🤣

Cheer Sean, I added a lot more grease, so that should help. But good to know 👍
Hi, I have a question, heng long tanks are waterproof by default?
Or I must make it impermeable?
Cool tank. I like it. Looks good
Cheers dude. Would look good in a trailer ;)
Awesome Video!!!👍👍👍
What a blast! 👍
Can i use a 3s lipo 2200mah 11.4v
Not sure mate
Even real challenger 2’s can’t drive through thick bog without dislodging the drive wheel
Good to know it's just like the real thing then 😎👍
Is it completely submersible. Cuz I got the 348 $ Abrams.
Will it shoot water bullets ?
where can i buy this item ???
cant watch it so someone reply to me and tell me the price of the tank please!
Do you have to use glue to attach some of the pieces?
Yes
@@TomleyRC do you know what glue to recommend?
is the tank made water proof or mods required?
I waterproofed it myself using plasti-dip and conformal coating
great review bud 👍
Mine can’t go anywhere without gears grinding and my tank loosing turning and traction outside it’s a challenger 2 plastic takes stock tank
For the waterproofing do I just have to do the ESC nothin else?
can it go in water tho?
No gyro for the main gun?
Looks like you need one Link taken out of the Right Track.
Wow, that’s awesome. 👍😃👍
Cheers Wayne, it was lots of fun to drive!
Do I need a tank in my life?
Yes...everyone needs a Tank haha
No - you don't need a tank....you need 12 tanks...
@@bongofury3176 hahaha dammit! Time to get 12 tanks.
How do I charge my m1a2 can you help
Not bad but seems pricey
1/16 Tamiya Tanks can cost 4 times this...so for an RC Tank it is pretty cheap 👍
Achei que era um tanque real kkkkkk love english hello what's up?
Whats up Lucas 🤘
Opa! 😊
@@TomleyRC yeah yes I'm Fine
@@MCsCreations oi
Awesome!
Hello, can anyone help please? I have lost the GPMG from my Challenger 2, also my gun has stopped firing? It just makes a whirring sound...? Thanks
All I can say is the gun is most like jammed so you might need a rod or something to dislodge the bb pellet
cool
The problem with this tank it doesn’t sound nothing like the real challenger 2
Yeah, the sound units on these are not as beefy as they need to be
Tomley RC Garage agreed they need beefing up and needing
The whole sound card redone
13k bucks isn’t cheap…
Especially the fact that I’m buying with Indian rupees makes it 7x13000
I have the All Metal Wheels and Tracks, Too Heavy, Stick with Plastic Drive Wheels with Metal Gears.
Almost 300 bucks is not cheap tho
Cheap? Not really for Canadians as its close to $300 here :(
Cool
They not cheap anymore
кроты были наверное в шоке)
İt's not cheap
T
Little kids watching this be like: 😲 my mom said she is gon a get it for me **sneezes** uh uh **sniff**
Like bruh why are kids so dumb btw great tank model and video but you shouldn't have driven it into mud never do that with any tyoe of rc at all
Do Not Run these Through Shallow Water or Submerge. If you want to Destroy the Electronics then Have at It.
How on earth is that cheap lol
Cheap compared to the Tamiya ones, or the metal versions :)
Oh yeah cheap 😂😂
talk about cheap, 142 euros.
First
Don’t buy
