Thanks for your input, as well as BennyB & servoblast.
I would like to hear your opinion on a good starter tank.
If your planning on IR battling I'd go with a Tamiya Sherman or Tiger. If your planning on not battling and running in the yard or park I'd go Taigen. Mainly this is due to electronics. Tamiya's are pretty bullet proof and easy to set up. Yes, lots of people have had great success with the aftermarket boards but for a new person they could be intimidating to set up and trouble shoot if need be. Just my opinion.
