Hi Barry,
Thanks for the info
. It will be interesting to see what gearbox system they use. The type 10 uses the same as the Leo2.Plus in the type 10 you get the gearbox casing with the display model!!. I’ve not seen any pictures of the RC M1A2 as yet so it will be interesting to see what gear system Tamiya will use?.Brian...
Thanks for the info
