It's not listed at present, but a Sherman is 350,000 won, which is roughly £250.

Nice looking model ,but it might be hard to RC it the low profile front will not be easy to get gearboxes in .

Pete, GOOD CATCH! You'd have to scratch build something that's for sure.

Belt drives? 90 degree drives with bevels and planetary geardowns maybe?

It's a stunning model, but gearboxes are going to require some imagination. As Tom says, belt drives look like the only option, so unless some manufacturer comes up with custom (eg very expensive) gearboxes anyone contemplating this will have to make their own. Depends how big it is, shift the gears back and it reduces the room for a pcb, battery, and speaker...ho hum....
