    The T-34 was the mainstay of Soviet armored forces throughout the war. Its general specifications remained nearly unchanged until late 1944, when it received a firepower upgrade with the introduction of the greatly improved T-34/85 variant. Its production method was continuously refined and rationalized to meet the needs of the Eastern Front, making the T-34 quicker and cheaper to produce.

    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 T-34 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.
    Heavy Metal Castings

    Hoist hooks, hatches and even simulated "welds" are reproduced in cast metal for unsurpassed realism! (Painted version shown)
    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 T-34/85.
    Exhaust Effect

    Glycerin-based "exhaust effect" simulates engine exhaust emanating from the two rear mounted chimneys.
    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.
    Realistic Operation

    A modern 2.4GHz radio is included and pre-programmed for all modes of movement. The tank's drivetrain, turret, and barrel are precisely controlled with your input at up to 50 feet distant.
    RTR

    The convenience of "Ready to Run" (RTR) allows new players to join the world of RC Tanks with ease!

      Aros, I see you starting all these great threads for tanks but none (or the same few) are in stock. Are these coming into stock soon?

        That, my good man, I do not have an answer for currently but I could certainly ask Tom or Bill who may have the answer to that question. If so, I will gladly post the response here.

                How about the metal version Torro RTR tanks that you are creating a whole bunch of threads for?
