I got my Hen Long Pershing (Snow Leopard) in the mail, today. [sm=thumbup.gif] I like this one much better than the plain Tiger 1 (no sound or smoke), but I am already having problems. []

The smoke is awesome and the motor sounds are really good, but the machine gun sound, the cannon fire, and the tank recoil (back-up motion)have not worked at all.

At first the tank was running fine (other than the above mentioned effects), but after about ten minutes it seemed to overload and it would not move anymore. Now when I start it up, it will run for about 20 or 30 seconds and then the engine sound goes to a high idle (like a skipping CD) and the tank freezes up, once more. [&o]

I took the thing apart and had a look at the guts, but everything seems to be okay. I'm starting to wonder if it needs additional capacitors saudered in somewhere.

Any ideas, anyone?
