T55 back in production
I see DKLM are selling new T55's, apparently back in production with new tooling, so hopefully with better mouldings than the previous Hooben one?

Re: T55 back in production
Yeah, I received an email from hooben about one month ago. There will be some moulding upgrades, better gearboxes and bearings on the wheels

Re: T55 back in production
I'm tempted, assuming all the problems are fixed.

Re: T55 back in production
Possibly being slightly dense, is this a kit? Is the IR HL or Tamiya compatible? Looks interesting.....
Re: T55 back in production
It's a kit and no electronics provided.

Re: T55 back in production
Kit with only recoil, elevation, rotation and gearboxes I think. You need to add the brains of the tank
