Heng Long Tiger Tank: How To disassemble 

I have a recent v7 Heng Long Tiger I and it's amazing to see how far they've been improved over the years. No need for a separate switch for the smoke unit or volume control, it's all controlled from the transmitter nowadays. Lots of other improvements too 🙂

I just ordered a bunch of upgrades for my basic Tiger. I want to take it apart and paint and super detail the hull while I am waiting for the parts to arrive. Now I know how thanks to your video!

Just bought one second hand - traced failure to start to loose battery box crystal removed and refitted its circuit board and secured the crystal with tape to prevent it falling down with gravity. Biggest problem was tracing the final 2 front superstructure screws behind the detachable track link section.

When I first got tiger won the lights work perfectly

Thanks dude 👍

Thank you sir

I have one, great fun. The tracks have track pins. Push out the pin so far and then pull with needle nose pliers. Reverse process to remount. Good video. I'm thinking about upgrading mine a little as it's the basic model. I have a broken torsion suspension arm I need to repair also.

what does.that circuit board.do? i have older version but want to put the 2.4ghz radio in. do i need that circuit board?

Opened it up, looks fine apart from the board(was an rx18) looking a bit bubbled up, taking it to a model shop to be looked at. Still turned on and started so fingers crossed. And thanks for replying. P

There's 2 ports in the rear mufflers use a flashlight and magnifying 🔎 glass you will see the 2 fill ports for smoker

Thanks for the information on how to…

I'm going to take mine to a RC Place and getting a upgrade wire to run to the Frount Hatch and a Oil 🛢 fill tube for the smoker

Thanks brother

Thanks that might be useful

I can't wait until I can afford the metal chassis parts

Thanks for the video, I recently bought a older one thats not the smoker,sound but has the upgraded metal tracks and metal gearbox. Mine doesn't have that multi functional unit with all that stuff you have plugged in. Do I need that black box in order for it to run? I'm afraid I'm gonna go drop $80 on a battery and charger for it to not work. It has the green main board by the gearbox and everything else.

Excellent video man,thank you,i have one of these and my turret quit going up and down and i need to know how to take it apart to see what might the issue be,i use this tank very very little and before a few days ago it hadn't been started in like 3 years, i hope its not a electronic issue and more like a plug that might be loose etc

where do the wires from the turret plug in ?

Mine doesn't have the screws under the Track Mine is a little different

thanks this is my second tank and now I have to find out why I have to take it apart to fix the smoke its not working hope its ok and I can fix it ....I have the same one you do with the upgraded metal gears and track

Good video. You sound like Nick Cage!

So a battery pack goes into the space at the bottom of the tank? Got a hold of what I think is a similar RC tank but it's not complete. There is a metal cover on the bottom. Several parts are mising so it can't just be powered up and go! Thank you the smoke generator is optional?

this was a great video. I would like to ask how can you waterproof the bottom and how can you stop the tank from jumping back when it fires? I heard that it can be done cause I dont like it jumping backwards when it shoots.

I was having a problem with the Allen screws in the sprocket wheels because its a really weird size and I can't seem to find the right size. can you help find the right screwdriver bit size

Hi mate, i have the same one with a snapped barrel. Well I think it’s the same one, it’s a blue box. Not sure it has speakers on the one I have or not, it doesn’t say on the box. It was my dads but he passed away. I was just gunna fix it up and see if it works. Any idea if the heng long v7 barrel will fit on this one? I haven’t even had it apart yet, I can’t get the hub caps off, well one came straight off but I can’t seem to get the other one off, it’s almost like it’s glued. Also the battery.. it has a nicd battery that hasn’t been used in a long time. How do I know of the battery is charging if there’s no light on the charger? Idk if the battery will even work to be honest. I went to charge but realised there’s no light on the charger, unless you just have to time it with the charger it came with? Any help would be appreciated mate, as I want to try and get a barrel for it off aliexpress and get it working again. Thanks

Mine is the Plastic German Tiger 1 Tank

What battery 🔋 should I get since I upgraded the tracks and Sprockets

the lights don't turn on when you power up the tank but as you play with the tank and use it occasionally they come on and stay on for a moment then they go back off

I have one, which emitted a burning smell on one side, then shut down, not sure what board it has in, going to dismantle and have a look, I believe It's an RX18 as it was a 2014 model with proprtional control. smoke still worked, but one track not. Help!?

Man I have a problem my tank can't turn on and I need to know how make it run again but I cant

Dear sir my tiger 1 lights Don't want to stay on ... Any ideas ?

I have an older Tiger than I just repainted, I've lost my left drive and only one Tread Operating any Ideas?

Thank you will tomorrow ?

Hello my tank turns on and the lights start flashing. But when i click the key on the remote the tank does not turn on

sherman with plastic track is fantastic, tiger pro with metal tracks can only use inside, outside throws tracks, plastic better in my opinion, metal is to heavy , less run time and more stress on everything :(...1-16th scale by the way.

sorry I mean the two wire plug from the gun (red and black wire)

Which is better? Heng Long or Taigen?

Can u do one with the t90

Can i ask a question? My controller is broken. Do i have to buy only the controller or the controller and the black thing that controls all the sistem? 2:44 i mean this

Hi! Few days ago...I bought one HL Tiger 1version 7.0 for my son. We played until battery dead ( not too long with the charging came from the shop). I charged completely the battery...put it on...playing again a little...and them, don't ask me why :)) I starded to experience with the combinations of buttons from the remote control..accoding with the papers the tank came...just to experiment... Unfortunately the tank now is really messed up on all directions. Everything works fine...all sounds...turret up down, left right, lights, sounds, machine gun, main gun....but the moving forward, backwards, left right is all over the place. More than that the tank doesn't rotate left or right on place...nothing... I tried to reset to factory settings and for nothing... I did it couple times...no reseting. All this in just few hours... Any advice? I heard that the soldering on this tanks are crap and the boards as well.... I am not an electrician type of guy and have no electrical measurements tools.. Any ideas? Thank you so much !!!!

Mine is different but it is also heng long

is this the pro version

My Electric power Board is more complex not as explained like yours

We Google how to take apart heng long tiger, not old fart plays with already disassembled heng long tiger

Its tracks do not treads.

Lot more wiring than yours
