Having followed someone's build of one of these, and seen it running, I can only say that it runs super silky smooth, the suspension works brilliantly, and it everything operates flawlessly. I always thought the Leopard was A1 in all respects but the Type 10 is like a Rolls-Royce. The electrics are now on a smaller board, so can be tucked away in the turret, no other board apart from an RX18 is enclosed, and as being open is better for cooling, that is no bad thing.

It's also quite a quiet tank, but then it probably is in real life, what with modern silencing systems etc.

Enjoy your Type 10, that slightly dusty looks is spot on. :thumbup:

I'm pleased with it. :thumbup:

Think it helps change his expression...but that's just me ;)
Think it comes from carving NOH masks...it's a very cool art form...when the actors perform the play...they use the shadows of the lighting to change the expression of the mask ;) ...reason some masks are revered :D

Nice job, simple fix.

Easy to remove unlike the Leo one which is held in by big twisty tabs and the armour panels.

One thing you should do is remove the battery each time, I've heard the turret can move out of shape eventually.
