My latest addiction is RC tanks
Hello all,
After a long year hiatus from building models I have joined the RC tank community finally. My first purchase has been a metal hulled Taigen Tiger 1 with some electrical upgrades incoming by Dan. Glad to be here and hopefully will not go broke in the process.

Welcome Azmetro - sorry old chap but this is an addiction - you wont be able to have just one tank - this is a great forum and you will find a lot of knowledge and experience here - just ask and you shall receive (knowledge that is!!!).

Welcome to the group. Sounds like you bought the very same make/model tank as I. It's my first also, and I agree with the more seasoned, it can easily become an addiction. I have never enjoyed a 'big boy" toy as much as I do my r/c tank. Wish I had known about this hobby years ago, got a late start

Watch out you can get very hooked on wanting more and fined out you got no more room .

Well understood about the addiction side to R/C tanks, even though I have only been in it 2-3 months. While I still love my Taigen metal Early Tiger tank, already lusting for a #2 to play with. May have to be a Christmas present to myself, least that is what I am convincing myself to do, lol.
Worse things in life than being addicted to a big boy toy. Not hurting anyone, unless you take a second mortgage out to finance one's hobby.

I do plan on getting the tank(s) battle ready although I went and got an airsoft Tiger before I did my proper research. 
I just visited your group site and it looks amazing the amount of time, effort and detail that go into the battles and tanks, really cool. I will be getting in touch after the Holidays when things slow down on this end.
