They fit perfectly in one of these if you turn the turret for the barrel to rest at either corner. Thin foam will stop it rattling about.

Mate can I fit the tank and controller in this box? If I face the turret to the rear do you mean like it comes in the box,if so you may have just cured a major problem for me cos I have no idea how to transport it anywhere cos of the size etc.

This tank has cost me a fortune I suppose but it makes me happy and you can't put a price on happiness and I just talked to a guy on YouTube who knew I was getting the tank and I mentioned the road wheel problem,he said he bought the plastic set to fit his,he has the same tank,I was wondering this myself but that's how he's got around it,gona check again with him and if it's definitely ok I will order some from aliexpress,then when they arrive paint them black etc,problem solved it could be.

That's good

That tool box is marked up in screw fix at about nine or ten quid cheaper than normal, I think they're 34 in B&Q

Yeah it's very cool and ahh ok then about the box hmm I will keep it in mind,but it's definitely something I can get,I am gona give the tank another run around the garden on the standard battery I have no idea how long it will last,presume half an hour or something? But the extended one I haven't tried yet cos it takes a million years to charge,need that new charger but meh no rush.

OK mate cheers,I put a vid up on FB group of it running,I'm still learning to drive it but I'm getting there lol.

I've ordered some plastic road wheel covers from ebay they will definitely fit the guy I spoke to said,so I will paint them black and just use those etc and then that's it,done.

Few more quid it's cost me lol.
