This tank was the perfect start to my rc tank collection. This would be a great first tank. There was no problems with it.

My only significant complaint is that battery access is from beneath the tank behind a battery door that requires a screwdriver to open. I wish there were a charging port accessible from the top or rear

Hub caps are going to be difficult to put in if you don't have a hammer. But that's to be expected considering it is made of metal, so I'm saying that as a precaution to anyone who doesn't have the tools. You also have to assemble some of the details which was really easy! Super fun to drive around and take pictures of. Got here earlier than expected too. Thank you Motion RC!!!

I have noticed both from experiencing it myself and reading other comments that there is some issues with the smoke not always wanting to flow out, especially out of both tube's at the same time! I think I found the solution! Well, at least it has been working for me! I was trying to find a way to get the fluid down in far without flooding it so I took some canned air for computers with a straw and stuck it in just a little while it's engaged in smoke mode and gently give it a few short blasts on each side a couple times. Sometimes you have to do every couple minutes but it will flow steady afterwards! And continue, it almost smokes you out. If someone already posted this trick I'm sorry I haven't seen it. I just happened upon it myself and happened to have a can! Anyway, sorry for the book I wrote! Hope it helps! Thanks Motion RC, you guys rock! 5 tanks this past month and a half that I've purchased from you!!! I might have a problem!! Lol!!!

This King Tiger, a Panther, a Pershing and am currently waiting on my Sherman to arrive. Absolutely tickled with them all, just wish the King Tiger and Panther had rear lights. So far, that's my only complaint. I believe that the funnest part is, assembly of all the parts. Thanks Motion RC
