  • Upgrading battery for Heng long king tiger

    Hi all, new to RC world! I got the hang long king tiger tank a while ago now, I am looking to upgrade my battery for a one which would give my tank a running time between 1hr - 2hrs. Can I have some advice on the best ones that would help my goal! The basic battery I got is a SC200MAH 7.2v and the edition of the tiger is the 2.4GHZ. As you can my be tell, I have not got a clue on the electronics behind it all!!! lol!!
    Thanks in advance

    MotionRC sells 3500mah and 7000mah Admiral batteries with a Tamiya plug.
    Assuming your King Tiger is mostly plastic the 3500 gives you about a half hour running time. The 7000 should give about an hour (I haven't ran my 7000 yet). I don't think 2 hours would be possible with a single battery. But just buy two of the 7000 packs and switch them during driving.

      Do you think you will be moving your tank non-stop for that 1-2 hours? Your actual play time will depend on how much of that you do. As Dutchie says, it's easy to swap out batteries.
      Twenty six tanks, and not done yet!

          I have all on my tanks (except the T90/72) the 7000 mAh Admiral. I have yet to recharge. Dai
