1/16th Scale R/C Tiger 1 Upgrade Project- Phase 1

[@delhardy71]

All you had to do to get the battery plug out, and the motors, was unplug them from the board

[@mikebenoit6648]

RC Madness is going to do my Rebuild

[@mikebenoit6648]

Not now RC Madness destroyed my RC German Tiger 1 Tank

[@davepriddy9263]

Great video.

[@johnjwedrall4290]

You did a awesome upgrade 👏. I'm Looking for phase 2 👍

[@Cormano980]

I recommend changing the gearboxes with PDSGB ones , it changes the tank's performance completely in all aspects

[@deathphoenix6387]

My brother who entered at the beginning of video : "these graphics are so awesome"

[@cobra727]

considering the first shot was filmed on a shitty gopro knock off, im kinda surprised

[@deathphoenix6387]

@@cobra727 it actually looked like one of those tank battling games like war thunder to him I guess 😂😂 well this is even more awesome though

[@dimon4_8_9]

Tell me did you solder the wires on the motors of the new gearboxes? There initially the plug didn't seem to be compatible for connecting.

[@richardcollyer4878]

how does your turret rotate all the way to the back mine dosent?

[@cobra727]

Mine came with a slip ring from the factory, If your's doesn't rotate all the way then it doesn't have a slip ring then it has a stop in the main turret gear to prevent the wires from tangling/breaking from rotating to much.

awesome tank

[@JackParsons.]

You can use a N8 charger for your Nimh batteries, it has automatic cutoff.

[@mikebenoit6648]

Where did you install the camera

Laughing with his best "Lazer Pig" impression.

[@mikebenoit6648]

I already upgraded to metal Tracks and Metal Sprockets for my Tiger 1 German Tiger Tank

[@mikebenoit6648]

Made a German Flag out of paper and Scotch Tape

[@mikebenoit6648]

Put it on the antenna

[@kalbert68]

Damn That Is A Beauty You Have ( Nice Job On The Video :) )

[@i-muts]

do you know how to take the roadwheels off? i see you have metal ones so i figured you'd know, i cant find anything on the internet lol.

[@cobra727]

There is a small grub screw on the torsion bar swing arm that you need to unscrew to take the road wheel off. Though I think that this only works on the taigen lower hull and not the heng long hull

[@i-muts]

@@cobra727 the holes for the grubscrews are there but the screws aren't lol. They're a push fit I found out. But I'll have to order grubscrews to fasten the axles for the metal roadwheels since they're a little to small.

[@cobra727]

@@i-muts do you have the Taigen lower hull?

[@i-muts]

@@cobra727 no I think I have the basic Heng Long chassis. Tbh I don't know which version I have since I got it from my dad's old storage box and it missed most parts of the box

[@mikebenoit6648]

Im going to upgrade my Battery plug that runs to the Frount Hatch Oil 🛢 Fill tube for the Smoke Smoker

[@NHseacoast]

Awesome but where did you purchase all the new parts from? A link? Thanks!

[@mikebenoit6648]

Im planning on upgrading my whole Tiger 1 Tank to metal

[@mikebenoit6648]

The rear wheel Sprockets have a Phillips head screw

[@starcraft117]

Wazup good vid

[@Eli-El-Toro]

Did you upgrade the turret traverse to 360 instead of 320?

[@Eli-El-Toro]

Also does the update Edition come with torsion bars and if not what suspension type does it use?

[@cobra727]

The turret traverse was 360 from the start, and the suspention on the upgraded hull is torsion bars

[@mikebenoit6648]

I uploaded the metal Tracks and Sprockets

[@SherlockYamashitayamaha]

Panzer vor!!!!!

[@oprekboy9693]

Too bad, it's better to cut the cable than damage the battery compartment

[@mikebenoit6648]

You need to not go full power on the Controller

[@akinaspeedstarso]
