I was asked to show a size comparison and just how big the Centurion is. Shown here next to my Tamiya Pershing and Abrams.
Note: The Centurion is far from finished in these photos and just now starting system check (the barrel is a temporary 105mm L7 and will be replaced shortly with a fully machined version). I videoed the systems check and it is on my Instagram @ fsttanks. Feel free to take a look.

The Centurion is about as fast as a Pershing. It’s not what I would call fast by any means. It has adequate speed for battle fields like San Diego or DAK and is plenty fast for city type battle fields like LA or AAF.

By the way, what can all the buttons on the transmitter that came with the tank be set to control on it?
Adopts a 4ch transmitter equipped with function buttons
The RC mechanism uses a 2.4GHz radio set that can be easily enjoyed by multiple units without worrying about interference. The stick-type 4ch transmitter is equipped with 10 function buttons that correspond to the various functions of the tank with one push, as well as the trim lever for each channel. In addition, various settings such as button functions on the LCD screen, channel swap that can change the channel position, and servo endpoint adjustment are possible, and various information can be displayed. It is also characterized by being able to store up to 5 models of uniquely set data.Twenty six tanks, and not done yet!

I was curious about that also. I found partial info online:
