I noticed that the tracks were binding around the idler wheels on my Mato Tiger I, and was shocked to see how out-of-alignment they are with the double-wheels in front of them... & look how close the one in the photo is to its single neighbor...no wonder the track's teeth were getting 'pinched'!


So I took them off & installed a couple of washers around the axle on each side to push the wheel outward a bit... still friction-free & spins like a charm


Proper alignment is restored & now it runs better than ever

Good work

Im pretty sure i had to do that with my original near 20 year old Heng Long Tiger 1 as well
but the new HL Tiger 1 runs ok without adding washers
Cool fix tho mate
