1/4 Scale RC Königstiger King Tiger Tank Field Test

[creccy]

wow lost for more words than that ......sorry

[grekkli]

a tiger 2 could reach up to 40 km/h. as it is a HEAVY tank, it does not have to be much faster. back in WW2 there were tanks as fast as our modern ones. A20 or T-50-2 for example could reach 60-70km/h, but they were light tanks and their main purpose is to scout, so they need to push and retreat VERY fast or they will die. heavy tanks just have to stay out of trouble a bit and use their superior firepower to take out the enemy one after the other while their extra-thick armor deflects enemy fire

[SeksGnom]

@grekkli

you play world of tanks, eh?! xD

[batangyagit101]

In soviet russia tank drives you! lol just bored

[dirtbikeboyist]

Drive over a tree.

[hatakashi1900]

@dirtbikeboyist I did hehehehe but better not showing it publicly on youtube

[punaboy12]

Lol I can image myself taking this to an airsoft field and being inside it shooting through the main gun or coxtal gun lol

[blackdizeaze]

these old tanks can't run fast unlike today's tank!

[hatakashi1900]

@blackdizeaze hehehehe exactly, at least I can keep up with it =D

[MrShroubles]

@blackdizeaze

But they were much much MUCH heavier than today's tanks!

Hell, a big tank today weights 42tons, many back in WW2 could reach 90 tons easily

[Dazhimself]

how do you fit that in the car?! or do you just sit on it and ride that instead haha?

[hatakashi1900]

@Dazhimself haha I used a van to transport this tank, and yes I have sat in it and drove myself around

[Dazhimself]

@hatakashi1900 Haha great! =D

[mikeyut44]

great tank still thought it was real even though it say 1/4 scale at the top

[ThePanzerWarMachine]

Gabriel any new Tank News?

[5Mag1cs]

That is freakin' awesome!!!!!

[totalvvar]

where can you get 1 of these :D

[hatakashi1900]

@totalvvar From an English company called "Mark-1 Tank"

[MrY33haw]

@hatakashi1900 Are you english then because you said it was from an english company and i can't beleive tht you can get tht its so big

[hatakashi1900]

@MrY33haw hehehehe I lived in England for 11 yrs. And yes u can buy these thigns these days

[Siiseli2]

i think it uses lots of batteries *put awesome face here* just kidding :D

[deadmike73]

exelent work ,mate,awesome model!... one thing thou! the id number on the turret, why did you paint in on the spare tracks?

[hatakashi1900]

@deadmike73 Because the spare tracks have covered over the turret number so for easier ID by friendlies I painted the number onto the tracks. Such practise was common in WWII but not seen on KT, I used my "artist right" hehehehe

[emochiken99]

how tall is that tank [in metres or centimetres]

[hatakashi1900]

@emochiken99 around 0.8m tall

[KnorpelDelux]

Are the tracks really made of "pieces" or are they made of one whole part? The look like rubber.

[hatakashi1900]

@KnorpelDelux THey're made of individual casted links

[KnorpelDelux]

@hatakashi1900 OK then it just looked strange...i would have been surprised if they were not made of links.

[Maxpow33r]

Whats the dimensions? And would it carry your weight? lol

[hatakashi1900]

it's roughly around 8ft long, 3ft wide and 3ft tall, and yes it can easily and comfortably take my weight,. 

[SuperRam3500]

what kind of engine does it have

[hatakashi1900]

it has two 500w 12V motors inside.

[ThePanzerWarMachine]

i have seen the photos of this marvelous day on Mark1DOTcom and they were really funny. i must say, ''intresting choise of shoes'' hehehehe =D

[bassettrd]

Was this one based on a particular KT from WWII?

[hatakashi1900]

Not "exactly", the numer is based on SS-501, the camo scheme is based on Munster's surviving KT.

[ThePanzerWarMachine]

see, this is what happens is you go off-line for 2days to work on a particuliar video for some one and they suprises you with this. Look at that Suspension when it goes over that Big Tree!! =D

[hatakashi1900]

hehehehehe nice surprise eh?

[ThePanzerWarMachine]

@hatakashi1900

well my suprise for you is even bigger! XD

[petrwarry72]

i'd love to have this beauty even for few hours ...

i'd add real mg34 sound and 88mm if available .... 5*****

[hatakashi1900]

Thanks for your support mate and yes real 88 sound would be PERFECT!!!! And if u ever visit HK u can have him for few hours =D

[petrwarry72]

i wanted visit HK on my way fron NZ back to europe but Singapore airlines screwed it up with my booked ticket so i had to fly via Singapore ... i don't think i'll have chance to visit HK in near future. cheers

[hatakashi1900]
