Whoops! - Accident turned R & D video

[The Blitz]

I was installing a metal gearbox in the Matorro KT for a customer and I always raise the gearbox some but on this one I raised it a little too far,, the standoffs I used in the front were just a little to big! Well the customer did not want to cut the skirts off so instead of re-working this I thought I would do some testing with it! I built the customer another one. This tank now takes all the links that they give you in the metal upgrade kit for Matorro, it is a little to sloppy! But if you are familiar with the Matorro tracks you cannot remove just one link you have to remove two because of their design! In the long run this tank will need a rear tensioner setup, and I have been wanting to try the one that they sell at tankzone anyway, or else try to fit the Tiger 1 pair in there, so this will be my test tank for new ideas! It drives Ok though probably more realistic to how the real tank drove!
