I wondered, too, just what "foam tac glue" might be. For parts that might need to be removed on the model railroad, I have used PSA (Pressure Sensitive Adhesive) and even "hot glue" of the sort in a stick that melts in a little gun gizmo.

This is the glue I used guys and motion rc guy mentioned it in the vid of the review of one of there tanks,m60 if memory serves me right,anyways it's held on the covers but I don't think it's a very strong glue though,think I can snap the covers off but I haven't tried it.

Reviews on amazon people say they have used it on foam planes etc.

Thanks I’ll give this a shot. I don’t know if I’ll bother putting it on the idlers and the sprocket, I pretty much have to take them off afterwards if I do any kind of driving in grass. I guess I could take a track pin out but thats a bigger pain in the butt to me than unscrewing the wheel.

Motion rc posted a vid of the tongde professional version tanks but what I found interesting was that they added plastic idler wheel covers like I did,I guess the steel ones didn't fit also.
