In a word no.
Sorry, but the RC buggy gearbox will not work in a tank, neither will any of the electronics.

Your mileage may vary with the HE Abrams, but generally I hear its not a good starter tank - rubber band tracks and poor controls. Now if you want to get into the modelling side then it may be worth the effort as I believe that its not to bad cosmetically (not really into the modern stuff, so you'll have to get somebody else's help on that score), but out of the box you'd be better off with the Heng Long version, or if you really want to spent the cash to get an Abrams - buy the Tamiya kit.

Hope this helps?
