It's just a matter of electronics. Despite the absurd price, the Tamiya's board is not very advanced.

It states it will have sounds from the meteor engine.
Sheridan electrics have proven to be very good and much updated from the standard mf/dmd. Looking forward to a proper video.

Adam, unless there's a massive swing in the exchange rate in our favour, that'll be around £816

Anything coming into the UK that is over £135 is subject to import tax
so it will be roughly £125 on top of £660 plus the shipping carrier's fees which is usually between £10 and £20, I've had to pay this on a couple of occasions over this past year
there's no getting around it unfortunately
Cheers,Lee.
