RC tank 1:16 M41A3 WALKER BULLDOG smoke. and sound. effects

M41A3 WALKER BULLDOG (named after the commander of the American units who died in 1951 during the Korean War, General Walton Walker, the original name was "Little Bulldog") came into service in the early 1950s. It shows a clear shift in tank size perception - while the thirty-ton Sherman was considered to be a medium tank, the M41A3 is just a "light" tank. Armed with a 76 mm cannon with a long main and two machine guns (one Browning 7.62 mm coupled with a cannon and the other - this time Browning 12.7 mm - on the tower). The weight of the tank was about 26 tons, with a direct-injected Cummins diesel engine giving the maximum speed on the road up to 72 km / h. A small number of M41 (of about 5000 produced) was tested during the Korean War, but was a significant proportion of the tanks deployed in Vietnam, where they served also in the Jihovitnam Army. In large numbers, they also exported and served, for example, in Japan, Brazil, Taiwan, Thailand. The tank chassis served for the development of the M75 armored transporter, which eventually produced an incredibly widespread and very successful M113.

And this legend now goes to our model battlefield as a fully functional model at 1:16 scale!

The electric M41A3 RC model faithfully performs most of the actual tank functions. It is equipped with a realistic chassis with functional belts, drive, travel and tension wheels that allow for both forward and reverse travel, left and right turns forwards and backwards. There is a pure tank-like "spin-off" - rotation on the spot with counter-motion of the belts. Remote control of the turn of the tower (at 320o) and the cannon (trigger and lifting barrel) is controlled remotely. Not only that - the model really shoots! Its cannon is not just an imitation but it's an air-soft air gun and automatic charging a 6 mm plastic BB ball. "Ammo" is stored in a stack in the tower; thanks to the system of giving the projectiles additional rotation, which helps to limit the impact of the Earth's gravity on the missile's track, cannons are up to 25 m. For shooting training the model is supplied with a paper target with a stand.

Simulation of the actual tank does not end there, the audio module (with adjustable volume) imitates the sound of the engine, machine gun and cannon shooting. The shot from the cannon can be accompanied by a backlash simulation of the "backward" model. Realism of "expression" further increases the smoke generator, which complements the sense of smell.

To control the model is a transmitter with two cross controllers (left controls tower rotation, cannon and gun shooting, right controls the forward, reverse, and side movements of the tank). The buttons on the transmitter are used to initiate the engine start simulation, machine gun sound imitation, cannon gun sound, switch on the smoke generator and adjust the volume of the sound effects of the model. The RC model controlling model operates in the 2.4GHz band, allowing simultaneous operation of multiple tanks at the same time.

The transmitter is powered by eight AA batteries or batteries (not included). The model is powered from the standard 6,2-cell NiMH 7.2 mAh battery (sub-C cells as for RC models 1:10) supplied with the model along with the network charger.

The model is designed to ride in the room, never drive it in water, puddles, mud, sand, high grass, public roads and other places (eg car parks) with car traffic. Unsuitable surfaces are also high "furry" rugs.

Kit contains: almost ready-to-go model, maker accessories, sticker sticker, transmitter, 7.2V 2000mAh battery, 1 BB BB bin, mains charger, 1 bottle of aerosol mixer for smoke generator, paper target with stand. / p>

Attention! Special warnings!

Handling the air-soft weapon tank (Category D firearm in accordance with Act No. 119/2002 Coll. On firearms and ammunition) requires special caution and strict adherence to all principles for its use.

• This model is not a toy, it must not be operated independently by persons under the age of 18 without adult supervision.
• Against accidental shooting, the model is secured by a switch on the transmitter and a safety button that must be pressed while shooting, just before the shot, the cannon operation is signaled by the red LED on the tower next to the cannon.
• ALL people present with shooting must still be fitted with safety goggles for air-soft shooters.
• It is forbidden to aim and shoot at persons or animals.
• Never look into the mouth of the barrel - the gun may spontaneously fire as a result of accidental interference by an external signal.
• Perform all model manipulation with the switch on the transmitter off and empty the hopper.
• After shooting, a bullet charged in the cannon mechanism may remain, although it can not be seen in the magazine. Once the magazine is empty, therefore, always BREAKFAST SAFETY - a shot-free shot to make sure.
