Taigen Hand Painted RC Tanks - Metal Upgrade - Bulldog - 2.4GHz

The 1/16th scale Bulldog is a top of the range RC tank from Taigen. It's a fully functional model with many upgrades over standard 1/16th tanks. Most noticeable is the fantastic hand painted body that makes every tank original. This is also the metal upgrade version that comes with metal parts, tracks and gearbox which not only add to the realism but also also makes it more reliable. This new updated version comes with 2.4GHz transmitter receiver kit. The radio system has many advantages compared to the old crystal based systems like extended range, no interference from fellow enthusiasts and precision steering. From now on you can have epic battles with as many radio controlled tanks as you wish.

The next very cool feature is the sound on this machine, the sound generator has 2 channels and can play 2 sounds simultaneously - in short you will hear the gun firing over the soundtrack of the engine and together with the smoke generator and BB airsoft gun adds to the authenticity of the bulldog. The Taigen Bulldog is almost 2 feet in length. The tank is fully functional with multi-directional driving, 360 degrees turret swivel and rising and lowering barrel. The gun has an amazing range of almost 50 feet and a capacity of 40 pellets. It powers out plastic 6mm BB's and has a powerful red warning light, next to the barrel, that illuminates before firing. The paint effects are carefully done by hand to give the appearance of age and of seeing battle which is finished off perfectly with the included tank commander who is fully painted and in uniform. This really is a high quality and superb looking model that when not being used makes an excellent display model.

History; The M41 Bulldog was an American light tank developed to replace the M24 Chaffee. The M41 was an agile and well armed vehicle. The Walker Bulldog saw limited combat with the U.S. Army during the Korean War and was then used in Vietnam by the Army Republic of South Vietnam. The Walker Bulldog was an instant success with South Vietnamese armor crewmen which, combined with the tank's mechanical reliability, simplicity, and excellent handling made the Bulldog a worthy war machine.
