Overview
1/16 Scale German Tiger 1 Heavy Tank Professional Edition by Heng Long - RTR - HLG3818-002
Able to penetrate the armor of Allied vehicles even beyond typical engagement range, the Tiger I's 8.8cm cannon earned it a reputation for lethal, unmatched firepower. This Professional edition features metal gears internally, and metal tracks and running gear externally for high weight and durability. Pictures showing plastic painted road wheels are of the cheaper Upgrade edition, but this Professional edition's road wheels are unpainted metal with internal bearings and also capped with rubber tires for additional realism! Heng Long has produced RC tanks for over 20 years, and their products offer an ideal starting point for new customers wanting to explore the world of RC tanks. All of Motion RC’s Heng Long 1/16 scale tanks utilize the latest TK7.0 MFCB for outstanding control, performance, playability, and upgrade potential!
