If they were USMC camo, look on the end of the box and check if they are the
new Dual Channel 49MHZ units. These allow you to run two tanks at once for
head to head battles or maneuvers. Set one tank and controller on CH A and
the other set on CH B. The 27MHZ are single channel only.
You can run 3 tanks if you have 2 49MHZ and a 27MHZ.
Strangely, ALL of the Stuarts, regardless of make/box (Motorworks or
21st century) or model or frequency, have the same UPS barcode. So if one
has a reduced price, they all scan at that price. (Qualifier-- The special
Stuarts with 4 figures sold at Sam's Club do have a different UPS barcode
from the tank only one.)
Conversely, if one Wally Mart sells them for $50 and another sells them
for $149, they both HAVE to issue store credits for the amount they are
selling them if you return them without a receipt. The credits are good in
any Wally Mart. So be careful if you buy one for $149 that you don't return
it to one selling it for $50. Or vice a versa.... ;-)
