  • Arrival date yet?

    Last week during Motion YouTube chat it was mentioned a partial shipment of tanks are arriving soon within the next 2 weeks. I recently read somewhere else the date has been pushed back to mid to late June. Anyone have the inside scope for the real ETA?

        Still tracking for late May for tank restock. This week most of the arrivals were airplanes and helicopters.

                      Nope. I'm guilty of that too.

                          It's a .gif image rather than a true video. Just "Upload Attachment" rather than "Insert Video".

                              Prowler,

                              I do the same thing. However, I check the site 3-4 times a day. I guess you can call me a MotionRC tank stalker.🤣

                                I also check the site many times a day. I can't wait to get my next tank fix... So if your a stalker I guess that makes me a tank junkie.

                                  Beeg, Nope, it isn't just you. I am even experiencing a bit of angst over ordering right away as I'm trying to get one for "The Son" for his birthday, too. Ah, to be 36 again and know what I know now. Best, LB

                                    Hello content creators! Sometimes sharing a picture just doesn't do your model justice but posting a video seems like overkill. I find that a happy middle ground can be found in making your own GIFs. I have laid out the two paths for creating easy GIFs for sharing. Without Access to Adobe software (Steps 1,2,4,5) 1. Upload

                                      Alpha Does MotionRC send "In stock" emails on weekends? Do I need to hover over my computer all weekend or can I take a break till Monday?

                                        The latest update shows that the Heng Long container is due to arrive at Motion RC's Illinois warehouse on Wednesday, May 27. The operations staff is typically able to get models in stock the same day they arrive, but it can sometimes be delayed by a day if multiple containers come at the same time. Given that, if you are signed up for Back in Stock Notify you should expect to receive an email on Wednesday or Thursday of this coming week.

                                        So Beeg, you can relax until Wednesday 😀
