Where can I find the main shaft bearing collar upgrade parts for the Abrams? I tried googling them but may not be looking for the right thing?

Look up Heng Long Abrams parts. You are looking for bearings not a drive shaft. Although that drive shaft is also a great upgrade to the stock gearbox. I run them on most of my stock gearbox tanks.

Thats good to know regarding the drive shaft, I'll pick that up too. Its a shame there aren't any state side vendors.

Thanks again bro you've always got the answers I need. I bought a challenger 2 with metal gearbox but plastic everywhere else and also bought an Abrams with metal tracks and wheels. I also bought metal tracks with rubber pads with corresponding drive and idler wheels for the Abrams that I now wanna put on the challenger

Today I got my 6.1 MFU in, and noticed Heng Long opted to use a "dean" style plug for the power cable. An odd choice since the batteries they use have a Tamiya plug.
As I'm basically a noob when it comes to electronics: Why did HL switch to a different style plug? And what is best practice to adapt? I already have a spare Tamiya power cable with no plug attached to one end. Thinking of buying a separate female dean socket to create an adapter cable.

Trust me the Tamiya plugs would melt and most likely burn with 12v and 20 amps flowing through them for anything much over a minute or two of use.
