trust me 6mm paintballs wont screw up a tank. I took hits from a sniper springer airsoft(springfield 03) at 430fps shooting paintballs. all i had on was a light hoodie. at 20 feet it will sting a little and burst but it wont cause catastrophic damage. on the other hand if you are shooting standard airsoft bbs like the .20 grams or the .12 gram standard solid airsoft rounds those will hurt like a b@@ch. 300 to 400 fps is pretty much a standard for high end airsofts. airsoft bullets bleed energy really fast and getting zapped enough times during scrimmages i really dont see 350fps as a threat. if we used standard airsoft and not paintballs there would be plastic carnage everywhere.....hmmmm
lol can you imagine kicking tamiya tanks off the battle field because its henlong airsoft paintball only! that really cracks me up, not saying tamiya people are snobby or anything but it sure would be a funny thing to witness.lol now we have a tbu,hbu,and pbu thats paintball unit to you tamiya people. hehehe

First off from a guy who owns airsoft 1/16 tanks and tamiya tanks and all sorts of ir and arsoft 1/24 tanks I love the airsoft for you can realy blast stuff but you saying you want to kick tamiyas off the battle feild and the others saying you can buy so many heng long tanks for the price of a tamiya.... It's funny when i hear this because if for ever once you drive a tamiya there is no comparison to a heng long tank at all the tamiyas sound so realistic when driving the tanks because in fact it's all digitaly recorded from a real 1-1 tank so right there makes a tamiya far better than a heng long... Another thing in compairing a tamiya to a heng long is like compairing a toys R us radio control car to a team associated or HPI or something it's like trying to win a race racing the toys R us RC up against the real hobby grad RC's A heng long tank controls like toy RC from toys R us with a few non proportional steps ever feel how much better a hobby grade RC car controles and drive compaired to the toys R us RC?
Well that's the difference between Heng long tanks and tamiya tanks.

Just my thought on the matter you have to own a tamiya tank to truely understand what i am trying to say here.

you've got to be frikn kidding me!...man you are what we call a ''Tamiya Elitest''..let me tell you something Ive been into just about every rc hobby there is over the last 30 years, and enjoyed them all. I have even owned a couple of Tamiya tanks over the years(because I liked them not because they were ''Tamiya''), and I can tell you with a certainty that although Tamiya are quality kits that provide some higher quality parts, they are not ''light years'' ahead if Heng Long(HL were rough at first but they are gaining ground QUICK) and I have just as much enjoyment out of my little ''toys-r-us'' Heng Longs as I ever did with my Tamiyas! And also having owned the pinnacle of rc tanks which is 1/6 scale those make Tamiyas look like toys-R-us toys...we use to laugh at the guys with their little 1/16 Tamiyas thinking they were the big boys on the block (but youd have to own a 1/6 to truley understand what I am trying to say here) . You obviously never owned a heng long because you seem to have no clue what you are talking about...or your just talking out your a$#! Im sorry to rant, but I put a lot of time and effort into my HL's and I take massive offense when somebody talks smack like this about them then praises ''Tamiya'' as the be-all end-all of rc tanks..........all I can say is ''Shut-the-f%$k up!''...all your gonna do is piss everybody off....it all comes down to the builder if the build/paint are right it will be a nice tank period...I've seen plenty of shi**y tamiya's I can tell you that and just as many kick-butt HL's and vice-versa...enough said...here's a pic of my latest build (I doubt you'd see something like this at toys-r-us)....

If you are going to mouth off here get off the board with your bad filthy style.
no one here wants to see it!!

I in my post i am compairing RC's to rc how they work and sound and that's the best way i know to explain the differance between the two brands of tanks.

And second you know nothen obvously and i been into RC 30 years and had hundreds or al types of RC's and other hobbies like slot cars also.

IKNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT!

IF anyone tells me that they have the same FUN riding a heng long than a tamiya that person don't know nothing!!
and every tank guy i ever let run my tamiya that owned a heng long as soon as they drove it they always say man now i know why all the guy's
always say the tamiyas are so nice because they can't believe the sound the tank is making for all movements and actions it blows there minds when they drive a tamiya for the first time.

The sound alone makes riding a tamiya much more fun and the better drivability your kidding yourself if you think other wise are you serious?

Another thing I don't only like tamiya as i have all sorts of tanks as posted in my first reply marui, FOV, matto, heng long, VS, and tamiya.
