The simple truth is that there are many inaccuracies in 1/16 RC Tanks and it is easier to fix and modify a Plastic/ABS body than it is to do the same work on a metal one and if you screw up with a Plastic /ABS body you can repair the damage that you could not with a metal body AND they are a lot cheaper.

EXACTLY... brilliant minds think alike!

That's why I am stunned that they sell metal RTR's. Only the kids and novices are interested in those as they are a builders nightmare and the weight sacrifice is NOT in our favor.
