Turret and cannon can be turned manually.
There is a cannon firing sound with each shot and the barrel has a slight recoil.
Each tank comes with 4 selectable settings so it allows you to have a battle of up to four tanks at one time.
There are sensors on the tanks so that if you or your opponent's tank is hit 3 times the tank becomes immobilized
and an indicator light comes on.
Tank comes with two micro motors, so the two tracks can be controlled separately, just like real tank steering.
They perform actions like running forward/backward, turning and climbing inclines.
Each tank requires 3 AAA batteries for the tank, 1 9v for the controller unit
See if you can out maneuver up to 3 of
your friend's tanks so you can get the
proper angle to fire 3 shots that will
render the opponents tank immobilized
until the battle has been won and there
is only one survivor.
