RC Battle tamk - mikeh - 02-02-2009
I just got one of these:
US M41A3 Bulldog Radio Controlled 1/16th Scale Airsoft R/C Battle Tank Upgraded Metal Version Featuring Smokes, Sound, Lights & Metal Tracks
Man this thing is fun. Full RC movement, turret, sound, smoke, metal gear tranny metal tracks, the works.
And it SHOOTS!

From their site...
"This tank actually shoots 6mm plastic BBs from a fully automatic motorized firing system using self-generated compressed air. These can hit a target up to 25m away. The tank can fire while on the move or stationary and can hold up to 40 BBs in the turret."
Does the tank really shoot up to 25 meters (with fair accuracy) as the ad says, or is that number a little padded? Seems like 25 meters (over 75 feet) seems a little far, but I could be wrong. If it can shoot with fair accuracy up to 25 meters, that may be a little too powrful for the family cat... But then again, this is a cat we're talking about.

25m is with an optional high power upgrade. It shoots about 25 feet, accurate up to maybe 10 feet.

You got 8 shots with a new cat... Then just wait and see how long til the dang cat lasts on one life lol

The numbers may be padded.
The "length" of the tank seems exagerated though. They say its almost 2 feet in length. However, it looks like its 16" long at best if that controller is a standard size.
RC Battle tamk - mikeh - 02-04-2009
Well it actually is almost 2 feet long if you count the gun and consider 20" to be "almost".
But it is big. Its almost criminally similar to Tamiya 1/16 tanks, and mine weighs 7.5lbs with the battery.
Next step is to get a cat.
