Hello,

Today, RC tank club BTN (Battle Tanks Nederland) and model club MCH (model club Huizen) had a meeting at the home of MCH.

Despite the bad weather, it was a fun day. When it was dry, tanks went to the battlefield and some fierce battles were fought.

My first RC tank experience, and I've got to say it's awesome! It's really cool to see about 10 tanks drive and fire at eachother....and the noise is so loud you've got to raise your voice if you want to talk haha.
Hopefully next time we can battle in a more "nature" battlefield, but now with the wet sand and mud we had to stick to the stones.

Anyway check the pics!


The battlefield, in front of the home building of MCH


King Tiger

Oops, lost a hatch


I don't have a tank yet myself, so I was represented at the battlefield by my panzerjäger


This Sherman could be in big trouble...


Leopard 2A6 during a test run.....very fast tanks!


The 88 is a cast metal gun...very heavy!

Hmm I really feel good about my choise for the Pershing


Doesn't only look cool, but drives very good as well!

Very Nice, I hope you will like the persing. Have you driven the persing yet??

Well I have the feeling now I must have that thing too, but then the KT. lol

Hey

Yep I've driven with both the Pershing and King Tiger you can see on this pic:



The King Tiger is big, heavy and impressive, but I liked the steering of the Pershing a bit more.

It really is fun to drive one of those things, especially with other tanks.....

Going to buy the Battle System as well, and I'll become member of BTN probably! I've joined todays battles with the Pershing and King Tiger and it's real fun!

Once finished I'll make sure you can drive my Pershing too once
