We have been buying IR targets from a site called RCtankhobby if i recall it correctly. Rubicon99 and I have some. I used them for the IR part of our RC Tank Trials event that was set up similar to a model boat regatta but with tanks. He only makes them if buy a bulk lot of 10 so i had the split an order.
One guy in LA Tank has converted some iR targets into huge boxes with a flashing beacon and boom sound when it gets hit.
tamiya makes land mines for their 1:35 IR mini tanks but they do not work with 1:16 for some reason. Targets and mines would be awesome to be commercially produced but they would need to be compatible with the tamiya standard the hobby uses and, be a bit better compatible than the current HL 6.0 is right now. But, this does open a door for a whole new world of play if they were produced.RC tank parts and accessories I make

We are starting with a small armory. Just 3 of us. So this would definitely add to the activity. Plus the iR target games should keep the projectile police from becoming Moriarty's with all their negative waves. Woof Woof!!!

Modular, readily available IR target that I cooked up. It is compatible across all board types, including but not limited to Tamiya, Taigen, IBU, OpenPanzer, and HengLong. Can be powered through any battery that is 3V - 5.5V.
This allows a wide range of batteries to be used, including but not limited to: 1S (3.7V) LiPo, 1S 18650 Li-ion, CR2032/2016 coin cell, 3AA, 3NiMH.
Depending on your application and size needed, you can choose the battery pack and capacity to fit.

Alpha - we definitely need a source (Hint Hint to Heng Long Factory) for generally available ir Targets. Especially since he created these using HL parts and 5 targets can operate off one transmitter.

I've seen Stanley's videos also and what a robust program he has. I too will be mirroring his ideas. I am in the process of starting a local club here in Olympia.
