    My Merkava tank which has upgrade the motor to red motor.
    The IDF Merkava is my favorite Heng Long tank and offers many upgrade potentials. I documented some of them in this thread.
    The unboxing is uneventful. The package was delivered in very good condition. The tank works directly out of the box. No hicap whatsoever. I have only one pack of 2S 18650 LiIon. I tested it at 2300 mAh which should give decent run time. The 2S 26650 packs are too big for the Merkava battery compartment. When I first took


    The Red 390 is a fast running motor (25000rpm and up). It needs a well balanced ball bearing gearbox to run properly.

    Hope videos are OK here. A guy once made a joke about guys who want their tanks to do it all, including singing Panzerlied as they roll along, so I couldn't resist making this 40-something second video. I thought y'all might find it amusing. The 332 Tiger (gray) has an IBU2 so that's the engine start up and motor sounds, while the S33 has an Asp, so she provides the extra sound effects.

    Tongde Churchill Mk VII:

    So photos definitely present a different impression than direct vision. There is applied grime and bare metal rub-on highlights throughout to the point any more would be unrealistic, but in the sun they fade to insignificance. But it looks good nevertheless. Dust, rust and maybe mud would be the last layer, for the future.

    I looked at a bunch of real life M60's from the Reforger era. They weren't very rusty but they did get real dusty and dirty on maneuvers, especially if it wasn't the first tank in the column.

    .....a perfectly clean shiny tank, and look at it now...at least the other tanks won't make fun of anymore..



    Great field use look to the weathering👍👍. I also love the new M68 A3 barrel it really makes the M60 look more model / hobby grade like.

    .....a perfectly clean shiny tank, and look at it now...at least the other tanks won't make fun of anymore.. I haven't "fixed" the dust with another clearcoat yet. I'll let handling and running spread it around a bit. Oh, and Rich, the lugs broke off at the first brick step climb. Removed now as per your suggestion!

    I was stating it more for the other modelers reading the board so that they can learn since the topic came up, I know you can make a tank look darn good with all your weathering, I was just razzin ya.
