The length is estimated to be three. The length is 5 inches and the width is 2 inches.
Anything under a pound would make me nervous. With a 1- It was slow and difficult to turn with a 50-pound load on it. I suppose you could save a pound by removing the turret or some of the interiors, but I wouldn't expect it to be functional with less than a pound. Because of its light weight, it's designed to work. Best wishes for the success of your project!
The built-in battery in the tank is rated at three volts. The remote controller runs on an AA battery (not included) and is powered by a 7V 110mAh battery.
A full charge takes roughly 20 minutes. During charging, the controller's red light will be turned on. It's finished charging when the red light goes out.

Frequently, I am dissatisfied because a feature mentioned does not function as well as it is described. Isn't it true that this happens all over the place? Not here. Everything works exactly as described in the description in my mind's eye. br>br>Excellent detail for a 1/72 toy, and incredibly durable (I've accidentally driven it off a couple of multi-story buildings). When you set it on its tracks and drop your foot, it just bounces and keeps going), and it's a lot of fun. My personal favorite thing to do with it is to drive it down a dirt road or through a deserted area and imagine it hunting Cromwells, Cruisers, and M3 Lees. The only thing I don't care for is the low gear setting. br>br> There's only a smidgeon of a difference between this and the high-speed gearing. It could be a little slower in my opinion, but that's just me. br>br>The tank's battery lasts about 20 minutes and recharges in about 10 minutes. That could be due to the fact that I'm using Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries in the controller, but I'm enjoying it. br>br>Overall, the price tag is well justified. I'm not sure how long it'll last or when I'll have to gut it and make a small diorama out of it to immortalize it, but until then, I'm going to savor every moment it gives me.
This product, like most made in China's communist dictatorship, had a lot of promise for the price, but it was poorly executed in the end. The track segments are held together by a very thin thread, and one of my son's tracks snapped after only a few minutes of use. I haven't been able to locate any replacement tracks on the internet, so this Tiger1 is now a useless sitting duck. Hopefully, the Peoples Liberation Army's hardware is of the same poor quality.
I haven't even considered purchasing a remote control toy in a long time. But I needed to think of something to attract the attention of an agressive Savannah cat I'm caring for while his mother is away. It's been difficult to come up with something that would both entertain him and be able to withstand some of the initial attack. Having two speeds to work with, the ability to turn off the sound effects, and the ability to maneuver around or run right over obstacles have all contributed to the success of this small battle. ready beast, here I come- to be used for purposes other than those for which it was designed. I even (carefully) attached a few feathers to the top of the canon so that they spin around when I turn it. When I drive behind an obstacle and he goes into hunt mode, they stick up high enough for him to see them. I've even attached some feathers to it to help sweep the floors by dragging it behind it and driving it around. br>I wanted to attach a video, but recording and steering at the same time is difficult, so I'll have to set up a stand and see if I can get him to play within the camera's view. I'll include it in my review of the second of these I purchased. Yup! Just a few weeks after purchasing this one, I purchased another. Probably the best RC toy out of the dozens I looked at when I was shopping. And the price is unbeatable. br>Buy it now. You will not be sorry.
Toy is nicely made. The sound effects (engine idle, engine moving, shooting) are fantastic. The sound is audible, but it can be turned off by holding down the hi/lo speed button while rotating the turret. The tank has a lot of detail. My only criticisms are as follows: (1) The tank is not charged by an a/c adapter - only via a VERY short cable from the controller, and (2) despite having a speed adjustment button for both fast and "not-so-fast" fast". The tank has a high rate of acceleration. like, very quickly. Faster than the Daytona 500. , and (3) despite the fact that the turret rotates and the muzzle rises and falls, the action is controlled by a single button: Rotate left first, then right, left again, and so on. Aside from that, it's nicely constructed. in the manner of a tank It's well-constructed and sturdy. It was difficult to get it out of the box, and since a screwdriver is required, children should be supervised by their parents. It glides effortlessly over tile and low-pile carpet. I'm not sure if shag is a problem, but I don't believe it is. Overall, I wish they'd make a bigger version that addressed the issues I mentioned earlier. However, I strongly advise you to read it. It's a lot of fun for people of all ages.
5 Stars. For the price, I'm quite impressed with the Cheerwing tank; it's very detailed and has a lot of movement and controls. All of the standard controls are present, as well as the turret spinning and the barrel moving up and down. The barrel, however, is not a separate control. Because it moves up and down as the turret spins, it's difficult to control precisely. The turret spins at a high rate, and you have no control over which way it spins. When you press it, it switches between CW and CCW. Even so, for such a low-cost RC tank, that's an impressive number of movement controls. At this price point, I expected movement that only went forward and only turned in one direction when you went backward. The range isn't particularly impressive, but it's adequate. The tank's biggest flaw is that the internal gears and motors can pop out of place, rendering one of the tracks useless. There is only one screw on the bottom to remove to pop off the entire top and access the motors and gears in this version (more on that later). It will work again if you press the motor or gear down again, but it may pop out again. To keep the motors in place, I glued a piece of foam to the top of them with one-sided glue. One of the wires to one of the motors came loose from its solder joint, which was another issue I had. It worked again after I resolder the wire. br>I bought a second tank from a different store that, while it appeared to be identical on the outside, had a different design. The motors, gears, and circuit boards were all different on the inside. In terms of overall speed, the tank was also faster. There are also three screws on the bottom that must be removed before the internals can be accessed. Overall, the tank is a fun, realistic-looking, and reasonably priced RC toy.
