1/4 RC King Tiger Königstiger RC Tank Enjoying Summer Rain and Ponds

[n3rdbear]

1/4 scale..... a freaking toddler can ride on that!

[hatakashi1900]

Once the turret is removed, even a grown up adult can ride on it too!

[doggiedog142]

OMG you should ride it to work!

[mentalmetal1]

can you stand beside it in your videos so i can get an idea of scale?

[mentalmetal1]

the realism is outrageous! where can you get these, and how much do they go for?

[hatakashi1900]

I got from a company from England called Mark-1 Tank and this 1/4 KT costs around US$10,000.

Amazing.. You Should Try And Take That On Some Sand.. Dry Or Wet Sand.. W.E It'd Look Awsome.

[hatakashi1900]

I've thought about that but I prefer grass and water as SAND is toooooooooo easy hehehehehehe

This weekend I'm taking the tank out again so will try to take a video of it running on sand!

[frozenskipper]

electric?

[hatakashi1900]

Yes, it's powered by two 500w 24V motors.

Hatakashi, GREAT VID! 5/5 and fav!

I love the first scene and the crossing over @ 1:13

it's like... CHARGE!

PUSH FORWARDS!

MASSIVE BREAKTHROUGH!

um... yeah, really reminds me of my dreambuild too, a 40% KT  =D

[hatakashi1900]

Glad u like it again I do love playing with puddles haha My videos are there to tempt you into the 1/4 rc tank world! haha

[slopedarmor]

1/4 rc tank world? I'm leaning more towards the 1/2,5 (40%) driveable tanks world =D

[hatakashi1900]

woooooooo that would be even better!!!!! Don't forget to make plenty of videos!

[slopedarmor]

Have you never seen Gizmo4t 's videos? Check 'em out! Maybe you could build one too ^^

[hatakashi1900]

I have and I'm a subscriber to his videos too, his tanks are OK but not accurate and the engine noise still sounds weird.

[slopedarmor]

I know... his sherman is definately not accurate and sounds terrible in the gun firing video!

But his M60 is now (apart from the camo) completed and I am impressed with the looks! (not on youtube available...)

But when I build mine I will try to make everything accurate, the drive wheel will be multiple parts cut on a CNC water jet.

Only the tracks will be on a belt. (teeth IN belt! not like dave..)

And still doubting... a honda 18 hp V-twin or two 13 hp single cilinders?

[slopedarmor]

And when the time comes.. I might email mark-1-tank to see if they can make a few 40% track links :P only for on the turret though! weight... price...

And just like Dave a steel box frame, wrapped up in wood, with steel sheeting over that, with simulated interlocking armor. fibreglass turret...

P.S. Are your drive wheels perfectly scale? You have seen real King Tigers, what do you think? To me it sometimes seems as if there is not enough "depth"...

[hatakashi1900]

hehehehe that would like nice if u can ask Mark about that oooooooo 1.25 tracks!!!!

Yes the sprockets are perfectly scale on my Tiger. It's the really late war 18 teeth sprocket.

[hellow533]

i got 1/6 1/8 1/10 and 1/12 tanks and i commented on alot of ur vids about them... idk a 1/4th tank seems a bit big but do you think i should bother adding it to the collection?

[hatakashi1900]

That, is a MUST!! =D

[hellow533]

k i will.. ill need to park it in the garage... or mabey in a parking space?

[hatakashi1900]

hehehehe either one will do mate =D

[ThePanzerWarMachine]

you see, even a full grown man still enjoys a simple water pudle. the only 2 things he needs, is his inmagination and a 1/4 Kingtiger.

( and your mother still calls you unmature? ... i get the feeling...)

[hatakashi1900]

hehehehee I admit I'm immature and enjoys playing in water puddles and ponds hehehehehe it was fun =D

[littlebuttons]

love it love it

[hatakashi1900]

hehehee indeed indeed SPLASH!!!!!!!!!

[littlebuttons]

splish splash splosh hehehehe
