Overview

Few tanks carry a reputation like the Tiger I, and this Taigen Middle Version is a hefty 6.83kg 1/16 scale RC Tank modelled on the mid-production machine. It comes ready to run. The box holds a 2000mAh Li-ion battery with an XT60 connector, a charger, a 2.4GHz remote, a bottle of smoke fluid and a set of accessory parts, so all that's left to do is charge up. Taigen's V3 control board runs a full sound system covering the start-up rumble, the steady engine note and the shut-down, with machine gun chatter and cannon fire in between. Press fire and the metal barrel recoils as an LED flashes inside it and smoke drifts from the muzzle, while exhaust smoke trails from the rear deck. Line up another compatible IR tank and the IR battle system turns a stroll across the lawn into a duel.

Bright front LED lights pick out the path as daylight fades. Twin 380 sized brushed motors on a solid metal chassis base and metal base plate give the Tiger steady pulling power. Rubber track wheels running on metal tracks grip lawn and dirt, and independent torsion bars let every road wheel rise and fall with the ground, so the ride stays composed across uneven patches. The plastic upper hull wears a professionally airbrushed paint job that looks right at home in a display cabinet. Charge the battery, top up the smoke fluid and let the big cat prowl.

Note

Please refer to the instruction manual for operation, safety, waterproof standards and maintenance instructions.

Smoke Fluid: Use only one drop at a time to avoid flooding the smoke generator.

This is a hobby-grade product, not a toy. Adult supervision is recommended for younger operators.

Please Note: The BB firing mechanism on this model has been disabled to comply with Australian laws regarding projectile toys. The Infrared (IR) battle mode is fully operational for combat play.

Highlights

Barrel Recoil and Flash with Smoke

Barrel Recoil and Flash with Smoke

Line up your target, pull the trigger and the barrel and hull rock back together as the shot goes off. An LED in the muzzle flashes and a small puff of smoke drifts from the end of the barrel, just like a full-size cannon firing. Every shot looks the part, No matter what you target.

Battle Your Mates with Infrared

Battle Your Mates with Infrared

Taigen Includes its infrared battle hop-up as standard, so you can take on your mates as soon as the tank is out of the box. Fire at another compatible tank, and your barrel kicks back with recoil. When enough shots land, the tank you hit reacts as if it's damaged and stops for a few seconds, so there's never any argument over who won. The 2.4GHz radio lets several tanks fight at once without interfering with each other, and your backyard becomes a full tank battle.

Full Combat Noise

Full Combat Noise

Flick the Switch to Power on, and the built-in sound system rumbles into life with the growl of a working motor. The machine gun rattles and the main cannon booms on command, completing the scale look and sound of this historical replica. As it rolls into battle, your Taigen tank sounds every bit as powerful as it looks.

LED Lighting

LED Lighting

The Taigen range of tanks come factory equipped with an assortment of front and rear LED lights. Additionally, each tank comes with an LED in the barrel that lights when you fire the main gun. The carefully selected lights add yet another layer to the already amazing scale detail.

Professional Spec Paint Job

Professional Spec Paint Job

The Taigen IS series of tanks come with professionally painted colouring that even experienced hobby painters would be impressed by. High-detail texturing and airbrushing techniques make this look as realistic as possible.

Ready to Run Package

Ready to Run Package

Your armoured assault starts the moment the box is open. The factory has already assembled the tank, so charge the included 7.4V battery and get ready to roll. The tank and transmitter come in the box, and all you add is a few AA batteries for the remote. It's ideal for hobbyists and anyone who just wants to get driving straight away.

Unstoppable Performance

Unstoppable Performance

Metal tracks bite into dirt, gravel and grass, and the metal-geared gearbox keeps the torque coming. Individual torsion bar suspension holds each road wheel down, so the tracks stay flat to the ground for maximum grip. Logs, rocks and garden edging that stop smaller tanks barely slow the KV-2 down.

Working Smoke Exhausts

Working Smoke Exhausts

Pour in the included smoke oil, hit a button, and this tank belches thick exhaust smoke as the engine rumbles into life. The smoke rolls out behind the tracks as it advances, so every drive feels more and more real. Paired with the included sound unit, this tank is something nobody can ignore.
