I was a bit dubious at this when his video shows a hobby engine Abrams not a henglobg one and the pictures are off a Chinese forum. I would avoid.

If that's a Heng Long it's surprising well detailed for a HL.

I wouldn't mind owning one for cheap.

I found this. Keep in mind this is pre-production as it says.

Very interesting Jake79. Like the look of the new TX. I wonder if the trims are functional. Looks like some metal parts as well. Also clicked the "Li Battery" but it didn't reveal if it is packing a Lipo battery.

I just went back for another look, they are boasting a Lipo battery. Good for you Heng Long.
