The right gearbox seems to align with Two holes only.
Am I right in thinking I will need to Drill and Tap the missing mounting hole in the Base Plate?
Or I guess I could drill a hole in the Gearbox to match the offset Mounting Hole in the Base Plate...

Yes one of the gearboxes only mounts with two screws on the Tiger 1. If you feel it necessary you can use three, but my brushless tank I just posted did pretty decent with 2 and it had a lot more torque and speed going through it. Nice primer you got going So have you decided to go full early or a mix? I have always liked the mixed builds
