Welcome from Ontario, Canada!
I've heard the Tamiya Pershing is a very tight fit for the electronics, wiring, gearboxes, etc. Did you find that?

Thanks! It's a little tight...but this being my first 1/16 tank, I just figured that all the Tamiya 1/16 tanks would be about the same. I'm using a 2 cell 2200mah Li-po battery which fits with no issues along with a very small 6 channel receiver. When I bought this tank 20 years ago, Li-po's weren't around yet and receivers were about twice the size they are now. So things would get tight for sure back then.

Here in Canada, if you get lost in the wilderness, the first thing to do is make a fire and brew up a pot of tea. Within 5-10 minutes, a crotchety old Brit will come by to tell you how you're doing it all wrong!

All the RCH37's I've ever met have been trouble. The warning was justified! ;D ;D @)
