1:18 rc tank

Super recommended

The media could not be loaded. The Supdex German Leopard II tank is really well made with independent suspension and wheels. Plastic and metal throughout with a good weight to the body. In the absence of a throttle control for speed there are three forward speed buttons and additional buttons for reverse. The LED lights on the front of the tank look very cool. Handling is above expectations due to the weight of the vehicle, where it grabs a lot of traction on those treads and maneuvering is a breeze once you are aware of the buttons. No joysticks, but a lot of buttons. All in all, after the battery charged for a few hours, I was up and running in no time. Set up was minimal and the instructions could use a makeover. But it is easy enough to figure out how everything works.I loaded the hopper up with the solid BBs. The tank comes with a both that and water BBs to get you started. Common sizes so not hard to find replacements. Don't expect to do a lot of destruction with this tank, but it is super fun to drive and fire. I didn't have any balloons, so I first tried a cardboard box from four feet away. The BB could not penetrate the cardboard. That was okay, because what I did after that was create slightly oversized silhouette tanks stick figures out of cardboard that I stood up outside and placed them around the yard. These were fun to home in on and knock over with BBs. Cups were working good too! Endless fun with this tank and it even looks great up on the shelf when not in use.This is the best tank for the money that I have seen - hands down. The simulated recoil is amazing! There are two safeties for arming and firing. One is a switch located under the left topside opening door. The other safety feature is that both fire buttons (left and right bumpers) must be pressed in and held for a second or two before the tank will fire the projectile. You can see and hear it building up to fire. I give this company big ups for the extra safety features included on a vehicle that launches projectiles.The remote control requires three AA batteries (not included), which I did not anywhere on the box or in the description. The box is fantastic for gifting if that is your plan. The tank is packed very well, but does come encased in Styrofoam, so be fore warned. I took it outside, unboxed and wiped the tank down with a damp cloth, then it was good to go.Switch on the tank power, switch on the remote control power and then start up the tank! Yes, there is a start button. The sound is realistic and stays on for the duration of operation as do the lights. There is also the option to add water and produce smoke to make the feel even more realistic. The steam is instant, once the button is pressed. No waiting, which I was really impressed with.This is really a lot of fun to play with for adults and teens alike and I would definitely recommend it.

Love it tracks drip good wish motor was stronger bbs definitely sting on the leopard 2 model

The sounds of this tank are really impressive. The look of the tank is awesome too.I love the quality of the tank and the value as well.This is easy to control, super responsive right away and overall, just very effective to use/play with.My favorite remote car and favorite tank ever.

Bought the toy for my son for Christmas.Charged up the battery pack and put AA’s in as required. Seemed like the controller never connects with the tank itself as none of the controls make the tank do anything they are supposed to.

Returning. Would NOT shoot. Tried everything. The firing mechanism simply didn't work. It also did not come with the charging cable for the battery. Fortunately, I ordered an extra battery separately that came with one.It is nice looking and detailed model. All other features worked. Already had ordered another version of this tank to have 2 for battle games as in the advertising. So I hope the 2nd one that already shipped will work...Also, be aware this is a toy and is NOT hobby grade. The instruction manual says not to use in sand, grassy areas, or areas of general resistance (I guess to avoid strain to the motor). It does move and climb over small obstacles, but it's definitely not rugged or designed to go where "tanks" should go.

My son bought this gift with his birthday money. After researching many different brands and styles, we thought this would be the best. However, not long after getting it the hatch for the bbs broke. We tried to fix it but it broke again. I think overall the plastic is just cheap and flimsy.

The media could not be loaded. My son got this for his 9th birthday and he loves it! Maneuvers well. The gun actually shoots little pellets that are included (not shown in the video due to he not being able to find them after he shot them....boys) remote is cool and easy to use. Only down side is its a little loud and there is now way that I could find to adjust the volume. Otherwise great purchase!
