Welcome from Ontario, Canada!
I've heard the Tamiya Pershing is a very tight fit for the electronics, wiring, gearboxes, etc. Did you find that?

Thanks! It's a little tight...but this being my first 1/16 tank, I just figured that all the Tamiya 1/16 tanks would be about the same. I'm using a 2 cell 2200mah Li-po battery which fits with no issues along with a very small 6 channel receiver. When I bought this tank 20 years ago, Li-po's weren't around yet and receivers were about twice the size they are now. So things would get tight for sure back then.

Well, you're sh*t out of luck there mister, we keep the best tea for ourselves, and only let you ex colonials have the floor sweepings :P

Here in Canada, if you get lost in the wilderness, the first thing to do is make a fire and brew up a pot of tea. Within 5-10 minutes, a crotchety old Brit will come by to tell you how you're doing it all wrong!
