## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐ So-so Quality...
*by D***. on October 19, 2022*

Build quality is so-so at best - fit and finish is loose undefined and had to re-glue several parts. Paint isn't weather as shown just signal grey color. Electronics are lacking; slow track speed, turret is slow and turret is not 360 degrees rotation only 350 degrees. I would pass on this RC version of the Merkava better off waiting for HG version. Very, very disappointed.

### ⭐ Poor Quality RTR RC Tank Mobel
*by J***A on October 22, 2022*

I was going to buy the Hooben 1/16;RC Merkava model until I read the review at “rc universe tanks” online. The model is shoddy constructed and plagued with dozens of operating issues. Not worth any money at all! Wait for the Heng Long Merkava release.
