DETAILS

1:16 Scale German Panther RC Tank

Dominate your next RC battle with the 1:16 scale German Panther, a blend of cutting-edge functionality and historical realism. Powered by the advanced TK7.0 multi-function control board (MFCB), this model delivers proportional acceleration, steering, turret traverse and cannon elevation or depression for full battlefield control.

Customise your driving experience with programmable radio settings that adjust recoil strength, turn sensitivity, acceleration response and driving speed. The omnidirectional control system ensures smooth handling and responsive manoeuvring, whether operating in fast or slow mode.

Built for durability and performance, the Panther features rugged tracks that are easy to service and can be upgraded to metal for enhanced toughness. Independent suspension and a tough gearbox provide reliable traction and power across challenging terrain.

For added realism, the tank includes programmable track recoil with three settings that simulate the main cannon’s kickback. The onboard sound system features four distinct sound profiles, each including start-up, idle, acceleration, traverse, elevation, machine gun bursts, cannon firing and shutdown. Volume is adjustable across five levels. The smoke generator emits a glycerin-based exhaust effect, while working headlights and brake lights add to the visual impact.

Armed for action, the model fires 6mm plastic BBs up to 10 metres. Though low in accuracy and velocity, this feature should always be used cautiously and with eye protection. The Panther also supports Heng Long’s infrared battle system, enabling you to engage up to 20 tanks in simulated combat. After five hits, the tank temporarily shuts down, then restarts after ten seconds to rejoin the fray. Sound effects and LED indicators signal each hit and the tank’s operational status.

With 320 degrees of turret rotation, 30 degrees of cannon elevation and RTR (Ready to Run) functionality, this Panther arrives fully assembled, factory painted and includes cosmetic accessories to enhance realism. It’s the perfect blend of scale accuracy and battle-ready functionality for serious RC enthusiasts.

A Brief History of the Panther Tank

The Panther, or Panzerkampfwagen V, was developed by Germany as a response to the Soviet T-34 and first saw combat in 1943 at the Battle of Kursk. Combining formidable firepower, sloped armour and excellent mobility, it was one of the most effective and influential medium tanks of the Second World War. The Panther was deployed on both the Eastern and Western fronts and was respected by both Allied and Axis commanders for its balance of speed, protection and lethality. Though complex and occasionally unreliable, it left a lasting legacy in tank design. This RC model faithfully captures the spirit and strength of the Panther, offering enthusiasts a commanding piece of history.
