Heng Long 1:16 M1A2 Abrams RC BB Tank with Smoke and Sound - Metal Upgraded PRO Version

Modern Main Battle Tank - PRO Metal Specification

This 1:16 scale M1A2 Abrams from Heng Long represents the metal-upgraded PRO version, designed for enthusiasts who want maximum realism, durability, and performance. Based on the modern U.S. main battle tank, this model combines aggressive styling with a robust drivetrain and advanced electronics, making it equally impressive in operation and on display.

Extensive Metal Upgrade Package

The PRO specification includes a comprehensive set of metal components that significantly enhance realism and longevity:

• Real linked metal tracks with track pins.
• Metal gearbox for improved strength and smoother power delivery.
• Metal drive sprockets and metal idler wheels, increasing drivetrain reliability and traction.

These upgrades add authentic weight, improve ground contact, and make the tank far more capable during regular outdoor use compared to standard plastic versions.

BB-Firing Cannon with Recoil Action

The Abrams is equipped with an automatic airsoft BB firing system that launches 6mm BB pellets up to approximately 10 metres. Each shot triggers a recoil action, cannon firing sound, and flashing LED, delivering a convincing combat simulation. The internal magazine holds up to 60 BBs, allowing extended play sessions before reloading.

Smoke Generator and Dual-Channel Sound System

A built-in smoke generator emits exhaust smoke during operation, adding visual realism as the tank moves. The dual-channel sound system allows layered audio playback, meaning engine sounds continue while cannon or machine-gun effects play simultaneously. Sounds include:

• Engine start-up and variable engine speed sounds.
• Main gun firing sound.
• Machine-gun firing sound.

All sound and smoke functions are controlled directly from the transmitter.

Fully Proportional Drive and Realistic Suspension

Twin motors independently drive the tracks, providing fully proportional speed control in forward and reverse. This enables smooth steering, tight turns, and 360-degree pivot spins (one track forward, one backward).

The realistic suspension system with proper linked tracks allows the tank to negotiate uneven terrain and climb gradients of up to approximately 35", depending on surface conditions.

Functional Turret, Lighting, and Safety Features

The turret rotates smoothly through approximately 320 degrees, while the main gun elevates and depresses by around 20 degrees. LED lights at the front and rear, flashing main gun LED, and machine-gun light enhance scale realism. A gun safety isolation switch adds an extra level of safety during handling and storage.

Ready-to-Run Convenience

Supplied fully assembled, this PRO version includes everything required to get started straight away. Only standard AA batteries are needed for the transmitter, making setup quick and straightforward.
