    Representing the pinnacle of Panzer design in World War II, the Panzer IV series took the proven chassis of the Panzer III and upgunned it in response to the Soviet T-34 and American Sherman. This version features steel gears and plastic tracks for an economical balance between durability and weight.

    Faithfully recreated in 1/16 scale, Torro continues to grow its reputation as a producer of high quality, high functioning RC tanks. This Pro Edition of the Panzer IV features more than 70% metal part construction, a 360 degree rotating turret, a realistic torsion bar suspension, and a barrel recoil and muzzle flash effect that fires in sync with the IR (infrared) battle system.

    This version is delivered as RTR (Ready to Run), meaning it is fully functional out of the box, but it is UNPAINTED, giving modelers more freedom to detail, paint, and weather their model to their final preference. For the pre-painted version, visit here.


    All Metal Track System

    All of Torro's "Pro-Edition" tanks feature full metal drive systems. Single track links are connected with steel pins, propelled by metal drive sprockets and riding over metal road wheels and idler. Confidently conquer terrain with these durable metal tracks!
    High Torque Motors

    Reliable metal geared gearboxes are driven by high torque motors.
    Unpainted Version

    Decorate, detail, and weather your model to your specific version and taste. Utilize your painting skills for a truly one-of-a-kind model!
    IR Battle Ready

    Engage in friendly infrared ("IR") combat with other tanks using Torro's proprietary IR Battle System, both inflicting hits upon and receiving hits from opponents! Sounds and action signal each hit, until the 5th hit disables the tank. After 10 seconds, the disabled tank restarts and can rejoin the fight!
    Onboard Charging

    Torro's convenient onboard charging system eliminates the hassle of removing batteries after every driving session. Safely charge the onboard NiMH battery by plugging the included charger's plug into the tank's concealed charge port.
    Superb Scale Fidelity

    Molded details, metal cast parts, brass photo-etched parts, and functional elements such as opening hatches all elevate this RC model to the next level, making it a perfect display piece when it's not powering through the battlefield outside.
    360 Degree Turret

    Fully rotate the metal turret 360 degrees, and move the all-metal barrel up and down to train on your target. Torro's integrated drive electronics gives you complete proportional control to translate your precise inputs to all axe of movement. Drive, turn, traverse, train, and fire!
    Barrel Recoil and Muzzle Flash Effect

    The Pro-Edition of Torro tanks are distinguished by their synchronized barrel recoil and muzzle flash effect. When firing the main cannon, the barrel recoils at the same time that an LED inside the barrel flashes and a firing sound plays through the tank's internal speaker. Normally a costly aftermarket feature, this entire system is pre-installed in this Torro Pro-Edition King Tiger.
    Exhaust Effect

    Glycerin-based "exhaust effect" simulates engine exhaust emanating from the rear mounted chimney.
    Torsion Bar Suspension

    Unlike simpler models with basic spring suspension arms, this Torro tank features a torsion bar suspension system that functions like the real tank! Torsion bars impart positive downforce on the tracks at all degrees of rotation, resulting in significantly improved traction over uneven terrain.
    Features:
    • 70%+ metal parts including turret, main barrel, tracks and drive system
    • 360 degree turret rotation
    • Barrel Recoil with Muzzle Flash effect
