A suggestion for changing the color of white LEDs is to just paint them with translucent yellow paint. LEDs don't get hot & they are encased in plastic so regular model paint will work very well. Just paint 1 layer & let it dry, then you can keep adding layer after layer until it is the shade of yellow you want. I have used this method on my rc semi truck & it worked great.
Thank you and, yes they are from factory. the queality is not to bad. But there is some delay when the sound starts and stops. Im working on the tank now replacing a lot of stuff and all the electronics and wires.
hello, The earlier Mato Metal Sharman tanks did not have bearings in the road wheels. Does this Mato Sherman have ball bearings in the road wheels? Also, are the bearings throwout all moving parts (gear shafts etc.)? Thank you for the video
Great! Thank you for the reply.. I believe the early version of the Mayo Sherman tank did not have bearings in the road wheels. They must have redesigned the road wheels and added the bearings in the later version. Does it have bearings in the upper return wheels as well? Where did you purchase the Mato Sherman from?
Should’ve known it was in the link. Thank you for the heads up. They must’ve changed the road wheels to accept bearings finally as well as the return rollers on top. That’s awesome.
That's probably one of the worst control schemes I've ever seen. I wonder why they made it that way. It's much too confusing. But otherwise, tank looks nice. I only have one tank of my own now. It's a full metal Leopard 2a6
You mean the controls to operate the tank ? I agree Thats 1 of the reasons i'm changing all the electronics There is allready 1 video on my channel and more will follow. And i also have a tiger
@@HappyDude1 it happens even on display over time, many xion puma models had this problem, not a optimal material for this , I usually go with plastic or aluminium
Here is the link where i change everything on the tank

I kinda want u to shoot the tank with ur dan wesson can u do it?
Or can u replace the gun witha co2 powerd airsoft ?
@@adolfdrippler6987
Hell no 😬 are you crazy 🤪 ?
And no there is no room for that
And if the dan and wesson dosent pass thru it might make a nice dent for realisticness

Its allready changed with a yellow led 😀
That's awesome tank mate sure like it great video
Thank you updates will come
Love ur content
Thank you sir
Try a little glob of very thin transparent yellow glue on the LEDs. It'll look more historically correct and make it dull.
In the sherman build video you will see how i replaced it 😃
Fury was a Firefly derivative of the Sherman a completely different beast then the one you show!
Well its just a modded turret with another gun
Fury had a T-23 turret with the U.S. 76 mm gun
50mm!? Wow!
What?
Are the sounds of the M4A3 Sherman in the video here from the factory?
Greetings from Germany 😊

Is there a way to reduce the volume on this tank?
I think there was a volume button in there im not sure
I have one on my controller now with the elmod board
Those are some really complicated controls
Glad I got a heng long
It was
Thats why i put a elmod board in everything
The early Clark boards copied the Tamiya 4 channel layout.
Newer Clark boards have S-Bus which is absolutely fantastic.
You can change the remote control method according to your own preferences. Clark circuit boards support this feature.
is the tank made of aluminum?
Pot metal
Paint it like a army camouflage
im going to paint it like the sherman from kelly heroes
Mato vs hooben whats better.
mato
@@HappyDude1 thanks.
Where did you buy?

@@HappyDude1 Yep, I was talking about the controls to operate the tank. I don't see how anyone would want to control it that way hehe.
is that a pot metal they used on that tank?
What do you mean ?
Yes, the majority
of the tank is made from cast zinc-alloy
Yeah, it's pot , not aluminium, needs to be primed asap before it gets zinc rot
@@Cormano980
That will only happen outside with rain after years 😃

Eh who needs an m2 when you can have a very realistic rc tank 😂
Exactly 😀
You will never have a ticket when driving this 😀
Recolor the headlights
I have 5 more videos were i changed everything on this tank

Era que le des unos golpecitos al tanque para que suene el metal jajaaj
Hello. Your videos are great btw. I was wondering if you could give me the L x W x H of the space for electronics? Thank you.
Thank you. I dont have the original board anymore its now from elmod
@@HappyDude1 thank you for your reply. But I meant the measurement of the available space in the sherman where the electronics sit.
@@mr.rajikon3911
Ow yes i get it now
As soon as i leave the restaurant
i will check it for you
@@mr.rajikon3911
Here you go little buddy
20 cm L
8-10cm W (springs inside)
6-5 cm H (more space in the front)
@@HappyDude1 thank you! How's your mato kits after awhile? Do you still recommend them?
