Well I only have seven at the moment with a Tamiya JS-2 enroute. It will be my first Tamiya tank. I have a small quad copter that I fly through the house. The last time I took it outside for a fly the humming birds chased it around, it's pretty small.

With work and weather against me the last time I took my drone out I bottled out at 400 feet and brought it back down lol, but this hobby can be addictive as I have a tamiya king tiger and a tamiya pershing both full option but I like them but still swing towards my torro collection but I would like the tiger one from torro but time will tell as I need to slim mine down to get a new one,

You have to place the transmitter into her hands Ed and let her drive it. That's how I got my wife hooked to the point that she likes to do battle with my Taigen IR tanks.

Joe I agree that getting your lady on side by "permitting" her to drive, is the way forward sic :/ :/ BUT from personal pain make sure the Tank is on the floor and not on a worktop :silent: :silent: :thumbdown: :thumbdown: shaun

Did you buy metal replacements? Will the Tamiya metal replacement mud flaps work on a Taigen? I know, lots of questions. :{
