Hey there,

Tricky wording of that sales blurb - the body can turn 360ยบ (like all RC tanks), but not the turret: typically only 300-330degrees - not full rotation. The tanks are a good starting point IF you have mods planned, out of the box they are very toy-behaving with only 1 speed (go) forward and back, jerky response and abrupt movement.

To fit a "real radio" requires full gutting of the tank's electronics... personally I would just chuck a Heng Long S&S kit in it (Smoke and Sound) for way better control and added features.... cheap too (when compared to other methods). You end up with a decent running tank that goes where you want
