Hey peoples I'm new, not just to the forum but to rc tanks! But not to RCs. but man the closest thing I've ever seen to my tank (Henglong M41) is maybe the "BLizzard" snow cat looking RC that my friend has. I understand the basics of what controlling two motors at once is all about but have no experience with those specialty escs or any kind of mixing with traditional escs, and on top of that the tank has a board which is alittle different and has a lot more pins and wires than I'm used to.


So on the Henglong I've driven it around and I really.. well I was really disappointed it the performance, I'm into scale crawling and my tank does the opposite of what I'd like it to do.
On flat smooth ground trying to start up slowly the motors are already stalled out lol. If I slowly move the stick forward it will eventually lurch forward and then its mostly fine. The controller wins worst quality of any of my RCs.

It does have metal tracks and wheels so maybe that's why the small stock motors are having trouble. they are not too tight.

Ive ordered a V2 taigen gearbox which will come with 390 size motors but beyond that, is there anything else than can help make it move more realisticly? The shorter gear ratio and stronger motors will help but I was just wondering how big is the next step to a better controller and throttle resolution?

Oh and the tank is very rear weight biased.. Do any of you add weight to the front to make it drive better?
