I'm not an RX enthusiast by any means, but I just had to have a tank, because who wouldn't want a shooting tank? Everything worked perfectly out of the box and for the price point the quality is wonderful. Works great for my simple purposes and I do plan to give it some more trials outdoors soon! Side note, took me about an hour and a half to assemble, but mainly because I got distracted trying to play with it before finishing...

Everything worked right out of the box. Highly detailed for this level of tank. We just wanted to do tank battles in the front yard. The IR battle system works better then we both expected (used during late afternoon out of direct sunlight). Might have to get the King Tiger “Pro Edition” next. Thanks Motion RC for the support and notice in the box about the 30 day warranty. A little piece of mind that made my choice to order thru Motion RC.

Nothing bad to say about it but I do have an issue with the instructions. I struggled a little bit putting all the pieces on it because the diagrams are tricky. My manual was off on battery installation. The diagram and what I had were different. Luckily, MotionRC has a fantastic youtube page and I found the answer there. Also, after driving it around, some pieces fell off and I had to reorder them. Wheel hub caps can't be glued so keep an eye on them as I had a few fall off. The other pieces I glued on like a model tank. Overall, I still give it 5 stars! It even looks cool sitting on my shelf!
