Please tell me how your radio controls are set up for use with tanks.  I have
a 6 channel Ham radio with push buttons on the right side that are used for
firing the guns on a ship.  Will this set up work for a tank?

Thanks,

Ok, I know your not supposed to use an aircraft radio for ground use, but
what difference would it really make? If your going to be flying a plane
(potentially dangerous) opposed to a ground vehicle (ie.-tank, pretty much
harmless), then you would think that the radio frequency wouldnt matter. Now,
I've been flying and driving r/c models for over 5 years but this always
comes into question. I know it may have to do with messing with full-scale
aircraft, but I'm not sure.  As for me, I'm not into spending 100$ more on a
5 channel radio specifically for ground use. If someone could tell me why I
would appreciate it.
