Default Thinking of getting a Tamiya Tiger I

Hi all,

I'm getting into R/C tanks and initially wanted a Leo, but have decided on the Tiger 1 for a first tank.

It seems popular but I can't find as much info on it as other models.

For example, stella models lists metal tracks for it, but no bearing kits, backyard armor mentions they carry the new kits with a better gearbox (what are the issues, and how can you tell from looking at the box?)

Any info would be appreciated...

Mainly, i'm looking at metal tracks and full bearings during initial build, the rest of the stuff i'll add later (I have to keep a budget on this project)

Thanks for your help.

Marc
