21st Century Toys 1/9th Scale Abrams Tank RC Heng Long TK-7.0 Controller Upgrade Part 1

Just Upgrading mt old 21st Century Tank this is an older video just getting around to posting See the video of my Tank in the snow for the almost finished version. Stay tuned and subscribe I have something special planed for the Cannon!!! The Heng Long TK-7.0 does not have a Turbine engine sound my apologies to the enthusiasts.

That's a turbo diesel noise not the Allison Turbine engine sound. Great looking tank and helpful video, though. Thanks.

I have one of these just rebuilding mine looks like you have the white plastic like mine they are a bit more robust than the black ones. Damm hard to get one of these if you do cost a bomb saw one other day £750.

[@kevinroberson1985]

How much do one of those costs? I 60 years old but I would really like to have one. My great nephew would like to play with one of those when he comes over to see. I can't get out much anymore I'm disabled and don't have much income but I would like to know where to get one. Please write me back . I live in South East Georgia my name is Kevin

3:58 & 13:24 - The fan alone may not be enough - especially since
MOSFETs are located on both sides of the PCB (board), 4 on each side. Total 8. To cool them properly - heat sinks will be much more effective (versions 6.1 and 7.1 have aluminum housings and heat sinks transfer heat using thermopads - but with a higher current load - aluminum heat sinks will be more effective.

[@frankycheese]

I found some aluminum heat sinks that were a perfect fit I didn’t install any fans and no overheating problems so far everything seems stable! I’ll upload an updated video soon, I’m working on the cannon to do something awesome, wait till you see!!!

[@jerrytubb5584]

Just wired up a TK-7.0 on my custom 21st century abrams tank at the moment got 4 dc motors going don't know if it will work let you know.

[@tylerflying3074]

Would you be willing to sell it

[@George-nn8ui]

That tank takes so much fuel to stay in battles it’s obsolete compared with electric motors.

[@whya2ndaccount]

Until of course you need to spend a very long time recharging the battery for said electric motors.
