I see DKLM are selling new T55's, apparently back in production with new tooling, so hopefully with better mouldings than the previous Hooben one?

Yeah, I received an email from hooben about one month ago. There will be some moulding upgrades, better gearboxes and bearings on the wheels

I'm tempted, assuming all the problems are fixed.

Possibly being slightly dense, is this a kit? Is the IR HL or Tamiya compatible? Looks interesting.....

It's a kit and no electronics provided.

Kit with only recoil, elevation, rotation and gearboxes I think. You need to add the brains of the tank
