Motors are brushed and come with there own ecu (right name?)

I feel I must make clear,
I have no interest in 1/16th scale (to small)
I have no interest in Henglong, Tamaya or any other kits etc.
So many brushed motors, and I guess the black case is an Esc? for the interest pourble 1/16 it is according to the choice of each one, and does not criticize. Just that in view of the photos and the plastic gears? I doubt that works well for a long time? now this is only my personal opinion :wtf: :haha:

Ok guys
I've ordered a Radio Master TX16s

Need suggestions for

1 Receiver
2 Controller (suitable for 10th scale)

My first tank is only basic, ie movement, turret movement etc
I would like to add smoke, firing and sounds to future builds.

Kaczor,

You've just confirmed what I was hoping wouldn't happen! 8O I hoped that Thomas would continue offering the Fusion Pro Rev. F, but after seeing this post I haven't found a single one for sale here in the States (only a couple of places over here ever did carry them). I doubt I'd ever go with the new X after you and Rad discussed them in my post. That blows!

Regards,
Eric.

I guess it’s Beier from now on. Kinda hard to go back to anything less.

Only a radio receiver, that is all.
