Re: question about matorro KT
probably because they are a big tank, and apart from the bulge on the lower from glacier plate (i think ?) they are quite accurate.

Chris they have plastic gearbox that needs to be replaced, the motors are very underpowered. Mato has a very good direct replacement for this Beast!raven wrote:the KT i bought was £137.00 incl p&p which is almost double of heng long tank + its going to cost few shillings to upgrade must not grumble to much as i so wanted a KT also do they have plastic gearboxs or metal
