Overview
1/16 Scale German Stug III (F8) Professional Edition by Heng Long - RTR - HLG3868-002
The Sturmgeschütz III (Stug III) assault gun was Germany's most popular fully tracked armored fighting vehicle during World War II. It utilized a modified Panzer III chassis, replacing the turret with an armored, fixed superstructure mounting a more powerful gun. Initially intended as a mobile assault gun for direct-fire infantry support, the Stug III was continually modified, and like later Jagdpanzer vehicles, was employed as a tank destroyer. The F8 variant featured an improved and more heavily-armored hull compared with earlier versions.
Heng Long has produced RC tanks more than 20 years, and their products offer an ideal starting point for new customers wanting to explore the world of RC tanks. All of Motion RC’s Heng Long 1/16 scale tanks utilize the latest TK7.0 MFCB for outstanding control, performance, versatility, and upgrade potential!

I ran it and tested out all the functionality. Everything worked as desired. This is not my first RC-tracked vehicle, but my third. This looks like a model toy but this is the project I have planned for mine. I plan on taking RC Stug III apart and painting it as in 1943, 1831 Stug III Ausf F Stug Abt Großdeutschland Division.

They should have left it Panzer Grey like the Tiger I or camo like the Panther but to invent blue/brey is wrong. I'd send it back but the only thing wrong is the color.
