@@TomleyRC harsh..
Dad joke. 😆
I will use this today
That pointy thing you refer to a a mine plough is a hedge row cutter, Cullin's or Rhino tanks, it's a field engineered gizmo during the Normandy landings in the Bocage.
£92 quid seems reasonable. Not my type of thing but I'm sure it will make plenty reach for the debit card.
I was about to buy it but I checked on my phone and it was 300 dollars plus 80 dollar shipping 😑
Nice, the second startup you hear at 3:56 is the second Cadillac V8 engine coming to life.
I noticed, a nice bit of realism.
Ah, the Stuart. A speedy little thing, it is. Does she have TWO engines!?
Cool litle tank. The name Stuart is likely referring to Jeb Stuart, a famous Cavalry officer in the American Civil War. Just like other tanks at the time, Grant, Lee and Sherman.
A fast tank looks really funny😂
That price is nuts for the features. My grandpa would have been in heaven, he collected tanks and one RC version that just wasn't great for the hundreds he spent. This would have made him smile..
The tank would definitely have the word Naughty on it, as that would've been it's name. Tank crews have named their tanks for decades. It's just like pilots and bomber crews naming their planes.
The movie 'Fury' has some great tank names, Fury being one of them. Some others are Murder Inc, Lucy Sue and Old Phyllis.

@@TomleyRC do I get a gold star for solving your cryptic comment?
That handset Tx is very cool.
The spikes at the front were to help the tank throught the French (Normandy) bocage. Often they were fabricated by crews themselves. They could then plough through banks/hedges without exposing their vulnerable undersides or gettuing so easily stuck.
Seems quite good value too - tempting 🤔🤔
The M5A1 Stuart was considered a light tank and was quite fast and nimble compared to other tanks from the era.
Tank crew would have added some customization to their vehicle, so them putting "Naughty" on the side would be completely plausible.
The fork on the front is not for mine clearing it is for pushing through light obstacles like light bushes or barbed wire.
It has a name, it's the Culin Hedgerow Cutter, a theater-constructed hedge breaching device designed during the battle of Normandy.
@@Hjerte_VerkeI know who calls it a fork thing
I bought a tank a while back and the smoke didnt work ether, only when i took the tank apart and the water container too.. i noticed that it wasnt primed... its full of air that has no where to go so the water doesnt get in there, cotton clothe stays dry and it never reached the diode (the thing that produces vapor). i added the water into the open container and turned it on.. worked wonderful.
Is it water now or glycol? It was always a fairly smelly petroleum based oil
If i never started watching rc videos i would have never knew that you have to put oil or something else then water. I mean.. same device is used in aquariums and terrariums etc.
@@mskoudsI tried HO train oil that’s used for engine smoke, but I couldn’t get it to work on the coolbank
Stg curtis grubb cullen III invented the cullen hedge row cutter(spikey thing) to clear the bocage hedgrows on the fight inland after DDay .They where made from removed hedgehog beach obsticals from the invasion beachs . Great video phil as per usual ,yes please more tanks would be great to see on the channel 👍
Having messed with a few Heng Long 1/16 tanks, Ive found that the smoke units can be a bit fiddly. You have to make sure the cotton swab inside is in contact with the heating element but does not block the holes where air is pushed in and flows out. Otherwise it won’t do anything. Hopefully you can get the one in yours working, its a pretty cool feature to have!
"Stuart seems a weird name for a tank"
the maus:
It absolutely would've said "naughty" on the side of the tank. Many tank crews would often name their tanks and paint it on the side, especially American tank crews.
Commander was probably a bachelor! 😊
@@tmcgill2219 quite a few were, depended on their age. In WW2 it was not uncommon to have "older" soldiers who were already married with children and most of them were super irreverent 😉
What!? No indicators? 😅
Yes.. disappointed 😅
Haha ;)
Looks like they took a serious effort at recreating the proper one tail light on the left and the blackout (dim white light) marker/blackout brake light on the right.
Checked the banggood link you provided and saw Churchill Mk IV and M2 Bradley...tempting!
The guard on the front was used to clear brush and hedges and other obstacles if i remember correctly.
Invented by an American sergeant and fitted to just about every tank. It worked really well.
The British service name "Stuart" came from the American Civil War Confederate general J. E. B. Stuart. IIRC all US tanks are named after famous generals.
When you suddenly realise you need a tank in your life.
Great review as usual, just ordered one 👍
“It’s not the size what counts, it’s what you do with it” 😅
Single stick driving a tank would have to be the least satisfying tank driving experience ever...except maybe a wheel-steer... Bloody hell, twin-stick or nothing on tanks please.
Cool tank. If we are ever able to go to U.K my kid really wants to go to the big Tank museum. Do t recall the name right now.
I think there is a couple in the UK
The tank museum in Bovington is what your thinking of.
@@NeverLucky1765 yes!
I think that wire that you didn't know what it was for is so you can connect the batteries to a balance charger. I have lots of batteries with that connector. I could really use a cable like that to keep them healthy. That's a cool little tank.
really like it,tracks look bit narrow, but still a pretty cool tank 😀👍👍also baby oil should work,worked with my tank,maybe different smoke machines work differently 👍👍
Love the Hawaiian style ukulele music during the attaching of the accessories. And cool tank. Aloha from Maui 😎🤙🏽
Yes, a nice fun song 😎
🇩🇰🇩🇰what are name of song/ Music nummer🧐🇩🇰🇩🇰
I live in the US so these are hard to get parts for, but I still order them because of how fun they are💯👍…
It's funny that the hedge cutter gets stuck on grass ( the thing on the front is to get through hedges after the us got to France after d day)
That a way mate that a way
Awesome video you now are a tank guy
More tanks cheers

just wonder what country made this R/C american model tank
Two fish in a tank, one says "you drive , I'll fire the gun "😊
Ya man do some more very CQQL 😎👍🏻🙏🇺🇸😇🦅🇬🇧
Odd, I had a cheap RC Stuart tank maybe 30 years ago. No sound, lights or smoke. Wonder if they're using the old dies.
Didn't last too long.
IIRC, it's named after JEB Stuart, a Confederate Cavalry General. Just as the "Sherman" is named after a Union General.
Bingo !
Love a good tank 💪🏻
Beast little tank , those tracks stay on well apparently. Looked really lose but awesome & simple slack adjustment
1:45 they weren't, right? these caps were for the knobs in the middle of the top row ;-)
Yes.. see a little later on in the vid 😎
When you mean by cheap do you mean 100 bucks?
It kills me how many people have reviewed this thing and act like it's so amazing. Heng Long has been pumping these things out since 2005
That is totally wicked
We just come back from Normandy beaches for 80th anniversary and saw a couple of these full size tanks driving around with soldiers all dressed up looking the part. Great looking model
Hi there friend. The American designers of tanks in WW2, did not name their tanks.
The British army did, naming them after the American Civil War generals !!
And the fork in the front was used to clear trees and hedgerows.
Would have been good humor to name them all after confederates
I always thought it was named after water tank in first world war to keep secret what the army were building, nothing to do with American general.
Yes, as a tank name, "Naughty" is pretty tame...Look what guys name their airplanes... I crewed an M60 named "Acid Queen" in Germany back in the '70s
really like it, had some tanks but the most fun and the best tank to drive offroad i have is 2 cheap ir tanks. dont use the infared battle thing to much, but they are really fun just to drive outside
That looks pretty good, i recon it would look good on the back of a wpl b36 transporter....
As its fast.... Can we have a speed run please ???
Yes, would sit nicely on there. Looks fast… but probably only 6 or 7 mph
it's for clearing hedgerows
This tank was named after Stuart Little, an intrepid adventurer and bird lover, albeit a rather small young man.
You should call it Stuart Little
Moar military! Especially CrossRC stuff.
From Berlin to Warsaw in one Tank - Naughty!😂
Better than my Heng Long 1:16 Tiger - as soon as it comes to an upward slope it pulls up and sits there clicking to itself.
Yes, this did very well on the slopes! Steeper than they look on the video
Bought my son a heng long M4 105 Sherman. Thing is great and the options of setting up controls as well as firing air soft bullets is awesome. Have had it three years now and it get abuse. Everything still works. The only thing I dislike is the plastic track for thepricebut it's hard to complain about as metal tracks are available. I told myself we will get metal tracks when the plastic fail but it hasn't happened. Haven even used a spare link yet. At this point I think we are losing out on some capabilities. Might have to enter in the ole debit card hahaha. On some of my cheaper plastic diff rc trucks I will actually take the diff apart and shim them with copper washers. I use wet dry sand paper on glass to get the right thickness unless I get luck. Works ever time unless the gears are to far gone. Hope that helps. Peace..
I have two, one earlier version and the other is V7 with metal tracks and gears. It may be your battery isn't charging fully or there's another issue. The Sherman tank I have would run and randomly shut down. I found out one of the motor connections was shorting on the gearbox assembly. Just bent the terminal aeay and added some tape just in case. Don't be afraid to open it up and have a look. Parts are very cheap.
@@exraafrabbit1 My problem sounds like poorly-meshing gears.
@@Del350K4 they are easy to open up with a screw driver. You will be able to see what's going on.
Actually, the name used on the box is improper. The Americans called it "Light Tank, M5" and the British used a small number of these M5 and M5A1 light tanks with their own designation: "General Stuart VI". Because U.S. vehicles were used in British service with a different name.
Tank were named with American Civil War officer names, and this one was named in honor of the Confederate cavalry general James Ewell Brown Stuart.
So, "Light Tank M5" is used in U.S. service, and "Stuart VI", in British service. A M5 Stuart doesn't exist. This type of error has been perpetuated since World War II. Just like the “M4 Sherman” doesn’t exist.
Beautiful little tank 😍 💯 🇬🇧
Oh bugger it, I promised myself I wouldn’t get this….. I’ve just got this 🤦♂️ I blame you Tomley! 😂
I have 17 high-end pro 1/16 RC tanks, an 8-WD tank transporter, & 2. 1/5 scale pro 32cc two-stroke RC's, 1 Monster truck, & a dune buggy.
M3 Stuart light tank used by US and British forces, produced 1941-44. Armament: main gun is 39mm cannon, carrying 147 rds
secondary: 7.62 Browning machine gun with a loadout of 6,750 rds
Regards the funny name. "Stuart" is actually the designation for the M3 and M5 light tank series given these as U.S. produced lend-lease vehicles by the British Army. The British practice was to name U.S. tanks after Civil War generals, in this case J.E.B. Stuart, CSA Cavalry Commander. This was not a U.S. Army designation, but was later adopted. The later M3 Medium tanks were designated as "Lee" or "Grant", depending on version, and the of course the M4 Medium would be called the "Sherman". Again, these were name coined by the British not he U.S. Army but I think they work quite well.
Take a TRX4M body and put it on. Turn it into a scale "USHRA Monster Tank" racer.

I had an RC tank in the 90s. It had a wired controller but it was still a fun machine for little me.
Thank you for keep this channel about fun RC not just big $$ machine's
Stuart isn't such a funny name when you know who the tank is named after: General J.E.B. Stuart, Confederate cavalry commander. Light and fast.
War industries make enough money on innocent blood already, I'd personally prefer war themed stuff out of such a great hobby. But I'm just a drop in the ocean. :)
Keep good stuff coming Phil! 🙏 Cheers!
I decided to by an MJX 14210 based on you're recommendations, forgetting that I had problem with mods and modding things. Damn things cost me a fortune so far, is still in bits and weeks away from everything arriving before I can play with it! I've so many spare parts I built a second for my wife to rag round with!!
The Stuart “Honey” tank was a favorite of the British 8th Army in North Africa. See Robert Crisp’s book Brazen Chariots! They were considered to be a minor Godsend when they first arrived.
Will you be reviewing Mjx 10208?? First proper basher 1/10 from China?
When ya gunna do a review of the new 1/18 rc steyr 1500a german command vehicle, although from what I've seen it's nearer 1/16 scale, upper body is diecast too, also lights, dash dial lights, and smoking exhaust too
I have a 1/16th scale RC Panther from Henglong, it does perform similar to the M5A1 you got there.
The M5 ran twin Ford V8 Engines, so not as fast as the model in scale, but very quick for a light recon tank.
Indonesian RC fans : whoa, finally the "Jan Cox" or "Jancuk". in History, there was one famous Stuart with "Jan Cox" word painted on its side.
Why do they make these things ridiculously fast ? I bought one and it's simply too fast to use.
I didn't know they were sold as racing tanks.
Amercan tank s have a tradition of being named after generals
J. E. B. Stuart was a brave and capable soldier though he was a confederate.
Why do they make tanks fast, i want them to crawl. Also they should be left fwd/back right fwd/back not that weird steering function that only lets them rotate on both tracks, not stop one, run one like a real tank. Would be so easy.
Wider content net can't hurt, and i watch everything you upload evn though like you, I'm not into these either. Some interesting comments too on this video with little facts i'd never have known. I enjoyed this even if i'm not the target demographic if that helps as a little bit of feedback for future content, I still like to know whats going on in other RC areas I'm not actively into so i'm sure people who are into this enjoyed it too.
Usually when a youtuber calls something "cheap" It costs 3 times what i can afford but this one i actually might add to my collection.
Th sound unit and lights are great. You could weather this model up nicely and make it look even better.
Dont buy anything branded "heng long" i bought an abrams from them and the drive sproket was stuffed after i went through 2 full batteries
US armor have Generals surnames for their non-numeric designation, hence Sherman, Stuart, Grant, Abrams etc
i kinda liked the RC tanks being driven by a scaled down V8 engine rather than using speakers for engine running effect while the whole body is all metal
I'm surprised to see the tracks stayed on. You probably fouled the smoke system with the baby oil idea?
I like the scale look of it but the fast speed of it just ruins it for what it is IMO. Anyway love your videos. Your not the only one that could not get the smoker to work.
Prefer the tanks more than any other RC ground vehicle, especially the details lately.
You need to review the Ankou Team Pz IV when it fully releases, it is released technically but box by box for now, its a cast iron tank with a tiny bit of plastic bits around and I just wanna see how well it can do on the same terrain you tested this light tank on.
I've got a heng long tank (a stug iii) and the smoke machine is very hit and miss on mine. Also, I think it'd be cool to see an RC half track on the channel
Those tracks look insanely loose. Would likely drive and turn much better if some links were taken out.
That is a beautiful tank. No idea how much 92 quid equals but that tank is definitely worth it.
It is perfect for the price, but it would really benefit from some added weight and metal tracks.
Hobby plus Rushmore 1;18th can you do a review on this ine
Build a trailer to tow behind your most expensive rig! Yeah the Ten wheeler dude!😂
Tomley you should do a review on the bsd racing flux desert assault (the brushless one)
I'd rather it be accurate in looks, speed and handle like a scale tank instead of a fast car. If i wanted fast I'd by something else.
Is this a new brand or another repackaged henglong? Have never seen this controller on other rc tanks. This seems a bit better made than the Henglong tanks.
With how many features this has it pains me knowing my heng long panther g doesn't have that good of a transmitter, those switches are so much more useful than holding a button down and flicking a stick.
4:50 Real WT replay of me rushing to the nearest cap in my M5A1
What a great performing tank for a reasonable price. Thanks Tomley rc
I'm not into tanks, but this looks like it could be a good platform for a Mad Max build
THE M5A1 IS SO FAST!!!
play war thunder
Really cool tank. 108 Euros, but 200 Euros in shipping!
It’s a decent RC & looks good when driving it it was like ya it looks ok but once it got to the mud & dirt it looked right at home.
It was for hedge cutting not mine clearing it was used in Normandy
