I recently bought a RC Tiger tank from this shop in Hamburg Germany . You know the Krauts , they build quality stuff (as I channel my inner Vince , The Sham-WOW guy) . No fake , this one of the best quality RC tanks I ever purchased ! I love the Krauts ! I love Hamburg, Germany ! (17 November 2018 0600 hours)
That tanks so cool, I would of never guessed the original weighed 54 ton. It's amazing how they moved about over rough terrain. Keep the good videos coming mate
awesome review Steve! I wanted one of these and that's before I watched this video and found out it actually shoots bbs... I feel a new rc addiction coming on 😂
Glad to see HL upgraded the Tiger I. The Tiger was the first one I ever bought. Had a grey one with the smoke and sound options and the desert camo with no s and s features. They've all long since been gone due to just wearing out and I've been tempted to buy a new one
+ RC Tanks & Trucks I wasn't too thrilled with mine. I may have just gotten one of the early batches, but it reminded me of the old Tiger Is more than it inspired me. Tracks grinding on the fenders, the motors screamed louder than the speaker. I'm kinda kicking myself that i should have waited and just bought a Taigen for the amount of work i'll have to put into it. It's a ton better than the old Matorro King Tiger, that one the plastic was brittle and the electronics shorted out after a few uses. Ah well, for now i'm gonna focus on building some bedspring armor for my T-34/85
Just to let you know the bb firing function of this tank is technically illegal in Australia as it is classed as an illegal firearm (Which is really mind numbingly stupid)
Good to know , thank-you ! I always believed that Australians were more logical than us "dumb-ass Americans" ,what happened ? (17 November 2018 0600 hours) Abby Winters for Australian P M
I just ordered heng long. To replace a custom DIY tank I built. I plan to gut it so I can use ELRS Long range receivers .. since I normally control from inside my house and drive blocks away exploring. And I'm put fpv camera on it. Guessing I'll use same sabertooth esc 25a on it.. just hoping I can get stock turret motor working being it has only 2 wires. Guessing ground and signal 🤔
I have 4 different 1/16th Henglong Tanks. The weakness is the Plastic/Nylon Gears. At least upgrade to Zinc or much better Steel then Grease/using either Lithium or my Preference is Lucas, Red&Tacky Grease.
Well I have to say this is a excellent unboxing and review I've seen a couple of your reviews on TH-cam and I think you do a fantastic job and I think you have talked me into getting a tiger one from gearbest once again thanks for the great review and I hope you have a fine day down under
Was a nice review of the Tiger one tank but you never told us its dimensions in inches please what does the tape measure in length height and width in inches..????
Great demonstration and yes I will be purchasing this tank in 2 weeks , my questions are where do I purchase and load the oil? And does the machine gun light up with sound? Thanks for your attention to this matter.
One could actually say that the Tiger was front wheel drive!! - my Leopard 2 has rear wheels drive, but i actually think it is better the front wheels drive, not so much strain on the tracks and other parts in the construction, greets, Levi from Finland
I'd have thought the movement can be realistic if you push the sticks gently, so nothing moves too fast. Most RC models do everything too quickly if you don't have the right touch on the controls.
RC Tanks & Trucks 24/7 ..subd This tank is great ..glad I got it .. Made a little movie with my son on its first outing th-cam.com/video/DSonsmb1S8U/w-d-xo.html
those tracks look so loose that they look as though the tank would throw the track at every left or right turn? how is it on the grass? does she throw track mate?
I have a question I just got the tank today and after rotating my torrent few times it wont rotate anymore but barrel can go up and down any idea why and there is even sound for rotation but it wont rotate
hi, great video, very enjoyable to watch, I really like the tank but prefer my heng long sherman tank. are you gonna be doing any weathering to it. I've never tried to weather anything before, don't wanna make a mess of it. do you have many tanks. it would be nice to see a few in a kind of realistic action scene. 😀 👍 👍
For the henglong T-34-85, do you/anyone know if the gun barrel cycles up and down - ie if you push the left stick down the gun barrel goes down, then up, then down. So pretty much I am asking if the T-34-85 has the same controls as this tank
Would it be feasible to remove the gun on this tank? I have a school project that I want to use this as the base for, but I can't have the bb gun on campus.
Hi, I have that exact same tank. I turn on tank and the remote control and all the tank does is blink it's lights. How did you get your tank to work? I changed the battery I've changed the batteries in the remote control and still it doesn't do anything. Help me please!
I got same tiger 1 metal tracks, gears and gearboxes, but my tank slightly pulls to the left, and the trim buttons/sliders are fake (they don't work) is there any other way to fix it? thank you
Nice tank I just uploaded a video of my first rc tank. It's a Taigen T34-85 air soft metal version. Snagged a sweet deal on eBay! Just drove it around house and took target practice 😂
A very good review! I have a general query on Henglong tanks - I've just got myself a brand new HL Sherman (105mm Howitzer) and want to convert it to a British Firefly. I can get a 17pdr BB version barrel but I can't find any instructions on the web for how to remove the original barrel - what secures it to the airsoft unit? The barrel on the 105mm just rotates in the mantlet but doesn't 'pull out'! By the way, love the way your accessories just click in - on the Sherman, some do just that, some are so loose they'll need gluing on (the 50 Cal especially) and some need their holes enlarged to fit in! AND I've got a Yank commander figure - he'll have to go!! Many thanks for the great presentation.
I have an exactly same shape tank, w/ camouflage and 3818 on the turret, that I bought about 8-10 yrs ago. I lost the remote. Please help me to identify a remote. I've seen remotes w/ versions 5.2, 5.3, 6.0. Which one should I get? Thanks.
i bought one on ebay every thing runs great except for bbs i am looking for a wiring diagram i have powered the motor up and fired that way no responce of transmitter
Please just ignore my name (my sis made it its not my fault!) My family does not have much money currently. I love rc tanks. I had a cheap one when i was 6, and i broke it becuase of the quiality. it was rubbish and it did not do much. I have subscribed and liked your vids a while ago. Is there any othe chances of gettting this tank? P.S im aussi to!
RC Madness in Enfield CT wrecked my German Tiger1 Tank they cut the power switch wire where they don't need to fo and messed up the main board and Hopper

Oh wow! I hope Heng Long does this to all their RCs. The upgraded RX18 is really neat.
+Black Sheep yeah absolutely, so much better
awesome review Steve! I wanted one of these and that's before I watched this video and found out it actually shoots bbs... I feel a new rc addiction coming on 😂

I just bought one last night I hope it’s worth the money
Nice overview. I was so happy to see you opened up the tank to see the guts inside. Great job. 👍
Glad it was helpful!

Awesome, great to hear. Thanks for the support and glad you like it
What a great tank. And comprehensive review, thanks
Glad you liked it!
Love this tank. Like to see it running in the wild. Great review glad to see some tank reviews hopefully more coming.
+DENSUTUBE2008 much appreciated. Many more videos to come
Hey mate is it blue or grey?
Great video. I really enjoyed watching as I just purchased one. Thanks for sharing
No worries, glad you enjoyed it
Was a nice review of the Tiger one tank but you never told us its dimensions in inches please what does the tape measure in length height and width in inches..????
Say, how do you fill up the gas for the smoke?
the new latest HL tanks electronics are so much better than the older versions!
+shenlonco absolutely. The old ones were pretty crap
Great demonstration and yes I will be purchasing this tank in 2 weeks , my questions are where do I purchase and load the oil? And does the machine gun light up with sound? Thanks for your attention to this matter.
the smoke fluid? most hobby shops have it, same used in locomotives
awesome.. what a great looking tank and for the price you can't go wrong..thanks for. sharing..
+RcNickster absolutely, so cheap for what you get
One could actually say that the Tiger was front wheel drive!! - my Leopard 2 has rear wheels drive, but i actually think it is better the front wheels drive, not so much strain on the tracks and other parts in the construction, greets, Levi from Finland
Im sold on this one, thanks for the review
You are welcome, thanks for watching
How does it compare to the Tamiya?
No where near the quality but you can buy upgrades at good prices
RC Tanks & Trucks 24/7 ok think I will wait & buy the Tamiya then 👍
👋🏻 Steve! Anyway i can upgrade to install more leds using any jst or micro jst cables?
I only buy heng long tanks i would like to get the awesome T-90 could you do a review on that. PLEASE . thank you.
Dale Partoon yeah rc tanks and trucks24/7 can you review the T-90
I can,t get it or you can't can you ?
Do you know where to get a converter for the charger that fits North American outlets?
Will you do a firing demo?
Excellent review. Thanks. Are there options for making the movement more realistic?
I'd have thought the movement can be realistic if you push the sticks gently, so nothing moves too fast. Most RC models do everything too quickly if you don't have the right touch on the controls.
Thanks for the info on how to fire .. I couldnt work out why mine wouldn't shoot
You're welcome and thanks for watching
RC Tanks & Trucks 24/7 ..subd
This tank is great ..glad I got it ..
Made a little movie with my son on its first outing
th-cam.com/video/DSonsmb1S8U/w-d-xo.html
I wanna get one of these
I have the all metal one does one have to oil anything ie gearbox? thanks :)
Some grease is always welcome
@@RCTanksTrucks247 ok thanks :)
Cool review dude didn't realise it did all these things its boss thanks ;) .
+Lee Wood thanks brother
On witch site can gett it
Love it man that is very cool, thanks for sharing that with us.
+Shayen RC Enthusiast. You're welcome brother
those tracks look so loose that they look as though the tank would throw the track at every left or right turn? how is it on the grass? does she throw track mate?
from other videos ive seen the track slip off sometimes
Good review, thanks for your time.
You're welcome
I have a question I just got the tank today and after rotating my torrent few times it wont rotate anymore but barrel can go up and down any idea why and there is even sound for rotation but it wont rotate
look forward to the weathering vids
+KNEEGROW cheers mate
Is there anything you can do with these Heng Long tanks to make them drive more scale?
Change the gearboxes to 4:1 ratio
and who do u dothat?
hi, great video, very enjoyable to watch, I really like the tank but prefer my heng long sherman tank.
are you gonna be doing any weathering to it. I've never tried to weather anything before, don't wanna make a mess of it.
do you have many tanks. it would be nice to see a few in a kind of realistic action scene. 😀 👍 👍
you buy dimana
Cool History lesson
Thanks for watching mate 👍
For the henglong T-34-85, do you/anyone know if the gun barrel cycles up and down - ie if you push the left stick down the gun barrel goes down, then up, then down. So pretty much I am asking if the T-34-85 has the same controls as this tank
Is turret still offset, meaning when the turret rotates left or right, it's not actually centered as should be like the actual Tiger I?
+Evil Fingers I have to check that out. Thanks for watching
that is a nice detailed comander!
+Robin Nordlander yeah not to bad.
So could use that remote for other henglong tanks
Depends on the rx18 board model
Would it be feasible to remove the gun on this tank? I have a school project that I want to use this as the base for, but I can't have the bb gun on campus.
+Twinkie0413 yeah you can disassemble it easily
Hi Steve,
the tanks look really good!
+Peter Weber thanks Peter, glad you enjoyed it
Steve, Keep the tanks coming!! Always nice to see a new tank Vid... :-)
+Lord Lorenzo thanks man. Will do
Do you know where to get his all metal one?
How much does it cost and where can I buy it
Check out the link in the description
Hi, I have that exact same tank. I turn on tank and the remote control and all the tank does is blink it's lights. How did you get your tank to work? I changed the battery I've changed the batteries in the remote control and still it doesn't do anything. Help me please!
blink= no connection
can you unboxing the heng long challenger 2 please??
+Razi Ramadhan have to get my hands on one :)
Do the hooben maus tank. It is pricey but it looks amazing
does the turret rotate 360 degrees
+Swagpanzer Ghosts on Blitz no, nearly though
I got same tiger 1 metal tracks, gears and gearboxes, but my tank slightly pulls to the left, and the trim buttons/sliders are fake (they don't work) is there any other way to fix it? thank you
try adjusting one side track tension on idle gear it might help
whats the difference from the one on gearbest and the one on banggood????
+Swagpanzer Ghosts on Blitz I think they are the same
RC Tanks & Trucks 24/7 thx for the clarification
does this tank come wterproof stock?
Nope, you can only run it in shallow puddles
does yours smoke?
+Richard Mckay yeah although it didn't come with the oil
Can you run it in snow?
Yeah, should be OK. Not too sure how the cold snow would effect the plastic though
I have the metal gears, tracks, and sprockets so I should be fine. Thx for answering my questions 👍🏼
Do you do anything with Taigen Tanks?
Nice tank I just uploaded a video of my first rc tank. It's a Taigen T34-85 air soft metal version. Snagged a sweet deal on eBay! Just drove it around house and took target practice 😂
cool tank i have a Taigen Panther all metal with steel gears its a great tank as well
+James Rowe no, not yet. They are great though. Maybe later on.
A very good review! I have a general query on Henglong tanks - I've just got myself a brand new HL Sherman (105mm Howitzer) and want to convert it to a British Firefly. I can get a 17pdr BB version barrel but I can't find any instructions on the web for how to remove the original barrel - what secures it to the airsoft unit? The barrel on the 105mm just rotates in the mantlet but doesn't 'pull out'!
By the way, love the way your accessories just click in - on the Sherman, some do just that, some are so loose they'll need gluing on (the 50 Cal especially) and some need their holes enlarged to fit in! AND I've got a Yank commander figure - he'll have to go!!

Typical for HL Tiger I bad direction to open the commander's copula (around 90°)
+q8Raziel8p yep, definitely
i love your vids
+dj cats in da house much appreciated brother
How accurate is the appearance of this model? Any one know?
It's pretty good. Copy of the Tamiya mold
I have an exactly same shape tank, w/ camouflage and 3818 on the turret, that I bought about 8-10 yrs ago. I lost the remote. Please help me to identify a remote. I've seen remotes w/ versions 5.2, 5.3, 6.0. Which one should I get? Thanks.
i wonder is the battery for the tank included????
+Swagpanzer Ghosts on Blitz yes, absolutely
Hey how fast does it go? Also, what's the remote range and could it go up the small hill in my yard? Please answer :-)
Walking pace, remote will reach around 50m and it will go up small hills easily
@@RCTanksTrucks247 thanks bro! Sounds awesome might get one :-D tiger ftw
how long does the battery last? when fully charged I mean
Probably 25min
10 hours at full beans
Its much better that my old tiger 1
+Jose magin Lemus solorzano yeah they have improved a lot
Tryna find on that gear website but they said outta stock 😭
did they ever make tiger 2?
Of course. My favourite tank of all time
@@RCTanksTrucks247 i been trying to search for it but cant find any u know the key word to find it?
hmmm.... I just might have too look into this..... really blows the old "Altiment Soldier" tanks away....
+Randy Coolbaugh thanks
Just got a HL Tiger 1
Do I need to put smoke oil in straight away before my first run?
Generally a few drops will be enough
@@RCTanksTrucks247
I only had smoke coming out of 1 exhaust is the right...or
Should be coming out both exhausts
How much does one like this cost? It's chinese so would it be cheaper than Tamiya?
yes, it’s provided as a cheap alternative to tamiya.
Interesting- I would love to get one , but I think their way over priced . I believe your review on these tanks are boss.😎👍
Cheers bro!
The one he's reviewing is a smidge over 100USD which, if it's a good RC vehicle, is a pretty good deal
Great video. Thanks.
