Heng Long 1/16 Scale U.S. M41A3 Walker Bulldog with Infrared Battle System RTR Tank Kit
Command the battlefield with the agile and powerful 1:16 scale M41A3 Walker Bulldog, a post-war light tank model designed for speed, firepower and advanced control. Fitted with the latest TK7.0 multi-function control board (MFCB), this RC tank delivers smooth, proportional acceleration, steering, turret rotation and cannon elevation or depression for responsive, immersive handling.
Personalise your driving style with fully programmable radio settings that let you fine-tune recoil levels, turning responsiveness, acceleration sensitivity and select between high or low-speed driving modes. The omnidirectional control ensures fluid performance, ideal for both open terrain and tight tactical manoeuvres.
Built for durability, the Walker Bulldog features robust, serviceable tracks that can be upgraded to metal for increased resilience. Independent suspension and a reliable heavy-duty gearbox provide consistent power and traction over uneven ground, making it ready for real-world terrain.
The tank simulates cannon fire with programmable track recoil in three intensity settings, while the smoke generator produces a realistic glycerin-based exhaust effect. Sound immersion is delivered through four distinct sound sets, covering engine start, idle, acceleration, turret rotation, elevation, machine gun fire, cannon blasts and shutdown. Volume is adjustable across five levels for full control over your environment.
Fitted with a 6mm plastic BB firing system, the model reaches distances of up to 10 metres. While low in velocity and accuracy, safety precautions and proper eye protection are essential during use. The Walker Bulldog also supports Heng Long's infrared battle system, allowing up to 20 tanks to battle simultaneously. Each hit is signalled by sound and LED light, with tanks temporarily disabled after five hits before restarting ten seconds later.
Operational realism is completed with 320 degrees of turret traverse, 30 degrees of cannon elevation, switchable LED headlights and brake lights, and flashing indicators when hit in battle. RTR (Ready to Run) convenience means the tank arrives fully assembled, factory painted and complete with scale accessories for added authenticity.
Ideal for newcomers and veteran hobbyists alike, this RC model is a dynamic tribute to one of America's key Cold War armoured vehicles.
