I got a new video posted. We had a small battle in Blaine Minnesota yesterday. Check the video out! The Scorpion hauls ass through the very fine sand that we run on. It's not ideal for tanks because the dust gets EVERYWHERE but the way the Scorpion deck is made and rubber sealed bearings all over it is no issue for this tank. The whole day the Scorpion was still using the same battery and absolutly ZERO issues... It is such a good little tank. We are still working on the battle pit, but we so far have a fairly scale damaged Berlin area, a wide open desert area, and even a bridge in the middle. We will be adding a lot more and trying to get another material besides sand to drive on. I'm not sure the exact size of the area we use but I'd estimate around 30 x 50 feet.
