I asked Kevin about the Mamba, and he said it only works for HL, and right now there is no way to get reduced speed due to battle damage with a Taigen system. That's the ONLY reason I didn't buy a mako. I already have two dragons, and I'll put the dragon in ALL my airsoft tanks eventually. The one thing I didn't ask is if the mamba works with HL 2.4GHz, as I have one of those systems, but I decided not to pursue that because I don't want to use HL to battle. Taigen would've been hard enough, so now I'll just adopt Dan's point of view and upgrade at least one of my IR tanks to a full hobby grade system that's Tammy compatible.
