Abrams

I recently purchased a Heng Long Abrams Proffesional Edition. The battery bay and power switch are accessable on top of the hull. I was going to upgrade the smoker but when I looked at the 6 screw holes underneath the tank, they are all sealed up. Are the screws inserted from the top of the hull like the new Merkava? Any ideas?

Also news to me. Never seen this version, especially with bits missing from either side of the drivers compartment.

Spud WIP had a similar question in his introduction.

Oh! And a very belated welcome from Argyll and Bute.

The "bits" are not missing as such , it's one large panel that lifts out , from my interpretation of the image , anyway.
