Then discovered a couple of glitches that the support crew helped to fix, including replacing the control module. It wasn't actuating the airsoft unit. Lesson learned: test EVERYTHING before adding accessories or painting. Now it all works and is as much fun as the M4. I really like the proportional controls on these tanks. Will definitely continue to deal with MRC in the future.

All the detail pieces and smoke liquid were in zip lock bags, with half the bottle of smoke liquid empty and bags and little boxes all damp inside, while the bulldog had all the plastic detail pieces still on the sprue and smoke liquid and other pieces neatly stowed in specific compartments. Also, when installing the detail pieces on the Panzer, some of them were already installed?? A floor sample or return unit sold as brand new?? First time doing business with Motion RC so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and call foul on the Chinese; you decide for yourself! But anyway, these things are super fun, super detailed and pretty decent quality plastic. Would have been a dream to had something like this as a kid. Definitely worth the price. I bought the better battery packs and these tanks last like 30 minutes of just battle action. We didn't run nonstop for 30 minutes, but the battery didn't hold us back is what I'm saying.
