Did it last as long as the batteries? My (1/35th)JagdTiger didn't. The
gearbox seized up after a couple of hours and I'm told that wasn't unusual.
Also when turning it almost always shed a track.

No, the big Jagdpanther held up quite well, although I only ran it
around for about a week before just clipping the control wires off and
using it for static display.
What really was impressive to watch was the working torsion bar
suspension, which looked very realistic as it went over small rocks and
twigs.
The motorized tank model that really was a packing job for Tamiya was
the the 1/35th scale PzKpfw II. That thing's whole hull was full of
battery and gearboxes to get it to work, although it didn't have remote
control IIRC.

=========================================================
The Buy it now price has been dropped to $450.00
Some people do not have any idea what some kits are worth. Some put a
value that is too high on them and others put to low a value on them.
To me any kit is only worth what some one is willing to pay for it.

Works out to $75 each and therefore a good price. I'll wait till the
last minute. I'll probably hate myself as I has sworn off buying more
kits. I have more than enough stashed that will keep me busy till I
join that great big happy modelling club in the sky.
