Does it have the metal gears in axles? BTW, You'll need to work a little bit on the gearbox - genuine scheme will not work properly, the motor with just genuine gearbox won't move the model good and the electronics could start to heat up... In my 222 was modified gearbox with added lowering gears.

Thanks for the tip Eddy :thumbup: it does not have the metal upgrade kit :thumbdown: , It's not been run before so all the parts are still new, I only plan to give it light use just as a bit of variation on the battlefield :D if all goes well I'll leave it as it is but if I run into problems I'll upgrade parts or make some stronger items,

One more advice - metal gears for the axles:

Morning guys,

Couple more pictures with figure added, still got to put a little bit of detail to the figure yet but am really pleased with it, waiting on the esc and servo now to see if I can get it running,

Cheers, Lee.
