Here is a quick how to on getting at those gearboxes on our Taigen Sherman tank. After removing the tranny cover it is down to business just like our previous tanks. The gearboxes in this tank are the High/Low, 3:1, 48mm shafts (please excuse my 4:1 derp in the video!) and we now have ball bearing steel gearbox upgrades here: http://www.imex-model.com/product/TAG...
Happy tanking!

This video shows how to replace the idler wheel arms and torsion bar for the Tiger 1 tank. Sometimes the idler wheels arms break and you cannot pull out the arm from the connector. This video will show you how to replace the whole connector and arms.
-Start by taking the tracks off. There is another video showing how to do that, check my videos.
-Next take off the latching system for the top hull.
-Unscrew the set screws holding the idler arms in and remove them if you can.
-Unscrew the track tensioner screws evenly until the torsion bar can be removed.
-Follow the video on how to replace the idler arm holders correctly.
-Screw the track tensioner screws evenly and place the torsion bar back in it's position in the hull.
-Leave the tensioners loose until you reassemble the tank and put the tracks on. You can then adjust the tracks after it is assembled.

A manual can be provided also on a step by step basis if you need. Please email me at IMEX@taigentanks.com and I will be happy to send a file over :)

Hey tankers,
Today we have a special treat for our tankers...Chargers! We have both NIMH and Lipo chargers now available on the IMEX sites!

This is a quick video on how to change out your airsoft unit if your airsoft motor is still working. If you try to fire and you hear a whirling noise or a clicking noise then your motor is still working. You are in luck as you only just need to replace the firing unit. This quick video will go over how to do it. It is the same on any of the airsoft tanks, just getting into the turret will be different. Please contact IMEX@taigentanks.com if you need a wiring diagram or have further questions!

This is a first look at our new T34 from Taigen. This tank features a lower metal suspension, metal road wheels with bearings, metal idler wheels with bearings, 4:1 steel gearboxes, metal tracks, metal drive wheels, metal turret, metal gun barrel, metal hatches, airbrushed paint job, and of course our new 360 turret!
Here I will go into a bit of detail showing the internals of the tank. It isn't %100 final, but very close. Come take a look!

We now stock crossbars for our tanks! These strengthen the chassis and also give the turret more support. I made a small quick video on how to install them for everyone!

Visit our webpage at www.taigentanks.com for more information or accessories! The crossbars will be added to our parts section soon! If you need one now, give us a call!

This is a simple video showing how to access the turret. I made this for a customer that had a small piece of plastic fall inside his tank and wanted to know how to fish it out. I hope this helps anyone that needs it!

Hello tankers!
Today we have a very special tank to show off... The Sherman! This is the M4A3 75mm turret version. This tank is a huge step up from our previous tanks, this guy has a solid 1 piece lower chassis, with NO structural plastic support on the inside of the tank except for the battery compartment and the on/off switch panel. This tank has 2mm thick fenders, back plate, and lower chassis! The suspension is metal as well as the road wheels, drive wheels, and idler wheels. The road wheels also have rubber tires :)
The turret is metal with a cast texture and has a metal barrel as well. It is our newest 360 degree turret design as well. The Sherman will become available in either airsoft or infrared versions.
The Sherman also comes with High/Low motor mounted gearboxes with a 3:1 ratio gearbox. A 4:1 will be made available for purchase at the same time for those who wish for a bit more torque. The stock gearboxes are steel and the motors are our new black can motors which should stay a bit cooler than our previous ones.
The Sherman also comes with a dedicated battery compartment as you will see in the video. It holds a standard 6 cell NIMH battery just fine and even held my 2 cell lipo (your mileage may vary there) perfectly. This is a nice addition as we now do not have to worry as much about if our batteries are flopping around in the tank as much.
This tank will be made available in October hopefully in time for the movie Fury!

Hello tankers,
Today I will show you how to bind our tanks in a bit more detail than the previous video. Remember these steps:
1. Left toggle away from you, right toggle towards you on transmitter.
2. Turn on tank and transmitter at same time. Transmitter light will blink.
3. When transmitter light goes solid press the right toggle switch forward.

Enjoy! You are now bound to your tank! If you use the left toggle switch (ignition switch) you can start you tank and start tanking away.
