Hello and thank you for the add. My names Iain, and I live in the Peak District of Derbyshire, UK. This is my T72, which has been my lockdown toy in the UK. It is standard, apart from the painting, and weathering. It now has working rear lights, made with 2mm fibre optics and lenses made from old jewellery. I also have an old Tamiya Leopard A1, which is undergoing a bit of a restoration. I hope to get the Challenger 2, Leopard and T90. None of which will stay standard. I especially would like to have a go at the Challenger Megatron.

My T34/85 full metal by Taigen. IR with IBU2 board.

My son's Tiger I Mid full metal by Taigen. IR with IBU2 board.
Thanks

Hello UltraVargen.
In my collection I have only WW2 tanks, so I talk about this ones.
My favourite RC battle tank for IR battle is my "old and little" Sherman Tamiya. Good maneuverability, never a problem. Only if I have to battle against a lot of heavy tanks, like Tigers and King Tigers, I prefere the Pershing.
My favourite RC tank to simulate the movement of a real tank on the battleground, compared in our 1/16 scale, my favourite is my Full Metal Tiger 1. With his weigh of approximate 8 kgs., it's really like to see a mighty unstoppable real tank.
My favourite real tank is the M-24 Chaffee. It's a small tank, but I really like his design. Unfortunately it's not available as RC Tank.
And yours?

I'm just getting into RC tanks myself, the only one I have is the Heng Long King Tiger which I'm currently modifying/painting. I'm yet to drive it outside.
In general I mostly prefer the looks of WW2 German and Russian tanks. The King Tiger, Jagdtiger, KV-1 and 2, T-34. I must say I also like the Cold War Soviet armor.

Also thumb up for your models! I had some issues to fit the IBU2 in the T34/85... Don't you?
Thank you. The battlefield belongs to the FRAG (Front Range Armored Group) RC Tank Club in Colorado. After 19 years, we are moving the battlefield, hopefully indoors.
