Hi all, here’s my rambling unboxing and review of the new Haya centurion RTR hobby grade 1/16th tank It’s a step up on the chieftain, the running gear is fully built with metal ball bearings. Can be upgraded to completely metal running gear and suspension. Comes with metal tracks, idlers, sprockets and a track tensioner which is fully metal. Below link to tank www.hayaltd.co.uk/details/p19... Took me a bit of time to work out the controls, but once you do, it’s very nice. On to detailing it up even more as soon as the T-72 is done. Have a great week! Mr Tank a lot

I just brought one myself now im waiting for the chieftain to come back in stock . Ive got the challenger 2 . Already . I love the chieftain as i used to ride on the back of one and my boots were starting to melt lol debusing and clearing the woods of infantry then hop back on the tank at the other side . Early 1980s showing my age 😂

Hi! That’s very cool, whenever you hear a chieftain it puts the fear of god in you! She screams!. And it’s a great model tank too, it’s accurate dimensionally, which is all you really need. The challys okay, the tracks might need one link taking out. Thanks for saying hi, and sorry for tardy reply, my jobs been nuts! And I’ve not had a chance to do any modelling, just that unboxing, there easy to film! Takes no time. Have a great week!

Tamiya goes together wonderfully. It is expensive though. It dose not have a smoke generator, BB unit or operational Coupala traverse. It dose have magnets to hold the rear engine deck in place as well as the top of the turret. The power switch. Battery and CPU are all under the engine deck. No need to remove screws. I upgraded my Centurion with ball berings for the road wheels. Metal tracks from DKLM and home brewed my own head lights with 1mm LEDs. Enjoy your Centurion that tank looks great.

Hi! I would get a Tamiya, but I’m a ginormous kid and like the bb function 😂. I’m really looking forwards to getting into the cent, I’ve got to finish the t-72AV I’m doing, then it’s all guns blazing on the cent. It would be good to compare the two side by side. Thanks so much for watching, it really does mean quite a lot, and makes the process of doing them worthwhile 🙂👍 Have a great Sunday!

I had a Tamiya Centurion on order for over a year, never got it. Hobby shops still can't get one 2 years later. The Haye Centurion is vary nice and I am glad I bought 2 of them. Changed the radio to to a FS-I6s radio, HL modified 5:1 gearbox and the IR emitter in the mantlet where the MG is, Took the BB system out for a Clark recoil. All so have 2 Hays Cheiftains both with YK50s boards and barrel recoil . 46 1/16 tanks so far

I'm sorry that I beat you to it! I've changed over the transmitter and removed the smoker as it's a petrol engined tank. I'll be changing the gearboxes to the Taigen 7.1 gearboxes as they're much better than the standard Heng Wrong gearboxes. I've opted for a Visaton FR7 speaker to replace the Haya one and a proper volume dial. I have already changed over the turret roof and it was a bit of a pain in the arse, the cuppola operates by way of an N20 motor with a worm drive which is powered by a servo board and unfortunately it was hot glued into the turret. The track from the factory is far too tight so I simply opted to add another link either side and now it has a nice amount of slack. The controls are a bit nonsensical so I bound my own FS-i6S transmitter to the supplied board and now it's much better. The transmitter will have to be set to PWM and S-Bus and it's a breeze to bind! I hope you enjoy yours! Mine will be a lengthy project as I really want to make mine into an AVRE for my dad who was an Armoured Engineer for 3 years. Keep on tanking!

i like mine, i did make some modifications as the racket the cupola makes drowns out the Mighty Merlin.. oops Meteor engine.. mine is now very silent.(the cupola that is) and can still do endless rotations. I'm designing a 3d printed part to make the modification and will then probably make a few as my buddy has 2 of these haya Centurions. mine was at the local (Oshawa) Aquino meeting and ran well, it has loads of power on 7.4 volt but did have a few issues when first unpacking (loose motorwire, some parts broken of and the battery plugged into the clark board. i do run mine on an flysky Paladin EV transmitter. My buddy did have issues with the suspension being damaged out of the box but Haya send him new parts so customer service is awake and present (unlike Tong de where they will give you new parts but then charge 2 arms and 1 leg for shipping).

Dammit I feel a purchase coming on as my mouth is open and becoming very dry.... Inspired by you I purchased a Heng-Long Challenger 2 but its really a challenger 1 because of the vents on the side of turret! I repainted the challenger from white to NATO GREEN BS285 using 2 pack paint left over from painting my 56ton Chieftain and I must say for my first effort painting a scale model it went very well indeed, I even air brushed a muddy look! Anyways, I'm looking very much forward to seeing what you do to this fantastic Centurion Mk3.

Hi! I love that! That paint isn’t going anywhere!! 😂 and the chally is a chally 2, it just has a few heng long inaccuracy’s ie, that’ll do!. You can get the panels off with a micro razor saw, I’ve done a build log which I think shows how. The haya stuff is so much better, shape and dimensions there spot on, and the cent is a step up from the chieftain, (as I told the wife well worth the money!! 😂)If I could just convince andrew to make a chally 1 or a leopard 1 🙂. Here’s that chally log Heng Long CHALLENGER 2 build/detailing with Haya chieftain bb recoil and haya control unit #howto kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i76dd9OWqsXKqWg.html And I’m still very jealous you get to play with a real chieftain, it’s beautiful Thanks for watching, means a lot!

Hi again, sorry to keep spamming you with comments! I dug out the Sony remote and started programming the board. I managed to change it from Airsoft mode to just servo recoil and it took only a couple of minutes. I also adjusted the throttle trim in my FS-i6S transmitter down to 50 percent which gives it a much more realistic speed. I'm still playing around with the settings and switch layout but it all appears to be working okay! I fitted Heng Long pro edition gearboxes in the end as I don't think the Taigen ones would fit in the hull. Get in touch regarding programming the board if you come to it and I'll try my best to help!

I’m thinking the 2 part heng long smoker, or pull that one apart an mount the blower with a long tube in the hull to the smoke unit element box mounted to the hull top. But I’ve opened it up quit a bit, and it’s petty easy to attach when slipping hull back.

The wheels aren't a direct fit onto the chieftain sadly. They require spacing out 3-4mm.

@PieAndChips Жыл бұрын

The Centurion wheel bearings appear to be 950 bearings. To fit Centurion wheels to the Chieftain you will require 24 x 950 bearings for the wheels, plus another 12 (one per axle) to space the wheels. You may also need to file some material off of the heads of the suspension arm bolts.
