Yes, the TBS is specifically designed for the Tamiya Tank series to do Infrared battles with (very similar to the VSTank IR if you are familiar).

The quality is somewhat subjective, as I have said before Tamiya really shines from a modeler's point of view for detail, accuracy and quality parts of assembly, it is accurate down to the bolt heads! The RC portion of the model (in my humble opinion) is something that many other manufacturers are equally good with and that is why you hear so much about modifing the Tamiya tanks RC portion for better performance.

Tamiya took a great static model and made it RC, which is kind of backward from other manufacturers that start out making an RC vehicle and then correct detail parts latter.
