Pimp Your Heng Long Tank! See How I Built “Tiki!”

[@merickilic1256]

I love it! Looking to do similar things with my king tger

[@FullEarthWorkshop]

These things are awesome! Doug

[@44Mikeramirez]

What happened to the mato tiger build? Was looking forward to seeing how it turned out

[@FullEarthWorkshop]

Still waiting for a recording slot. Thanks for stopping by! Doug

You know what would be a Huge Improvement on the Heng Long/Mato, Torro/Taigen Tiger I and would make everyone extremely happy? If the Turret Ring wasn't Off Center, so the Turret can actually rotate normally like the turret on the 1/16 Tamiya Tiger I, also to point out, all the other 1/16 Heng Long based tanks, the turrets are centered including the PanTiger.

Wow…didn’t know that one…thanks!

[@noelwarner1235]

Love the video and the information could you please do a video on how to convert an early headlong thank to sound and smoke and the upgraded receiver and transmitter I have yet been able to find someone that makes these parts in a kit or set to do that or maybe it's more expensive than buying a new tank

[@FullEarthWorkshop]

Hi Noel- I have one of Heng Longs early tanks…it is cheaper to buy a new tank than to upgrade!

[@PieAndChips]

Hi Doug! Great stuff!! As usual! Best wishes

[@FullEarthWorkshop]

Hi Dude! Great to have a slice of RC Pie with this video!

[@colossalbigfoot256]

What smoke system did you get? I never used them cause they didn’t have the piston look so I built one back in the day but it was loud. Great mods on this tank.

[@FullEarthWorkshop]

This is the Taigen V2 Smoker! Thanks friend!

[@colossalbigfoot256]

@@FullEarthWorkshop thank you! Want to use this on a semi.

[@Dawgsofwinter]

I did the magnet thing on an RC ship it let me remove so many things for maintenance and made it so some smaller guns and parts that weren't supposed to move could be posed or removed as needed/desired without things falling off in the water

[@FullEarthWorkshop]

Better living through science! Thanks for watching! Doug

[@vasili1207]

nice info looking into rc tanks but since i build scale models i know i will update it ... luckily i live close to 131 so get to see the tiger drive around a few times a year

[@FullEarthWorkshop]

I am so jealous…say hi to the folks at Bovington!

[@chargelead9429]

I was looking at getting the HengLong panther but was wondering do you know if it could fit 540 sized crawler motors for more torque and a more scale speed? Also did u waterproof yours or do u know a way of waterproofing. I suppose battery access from the top means you can fully seal the bottom. Also great video very informative!

[@t26e3pershingtank]

Could you possibly do a video of modifying a Heng Long M26 Pershing? I've been looking here and there for years and am always finding conflicting ways of modifying one that give so little instruction it's actually painful to watch

[@noteducated1572]

If you ever come back to check up on this video, can you leave the links for the turret bearings please, I've been having trouble find them online, it would be very much appreciated.

too complicated
