Hi folks, I know some here have dealt with MatoMart.

The gentleman at tech support there said the tanks do come with an IR receiver.

I was wondering (& I forgot to ask) - if I needed to get a spare, will the Tamiya IR apple work? (the tank being equipped a Clark board) Or does it need to be a Clark or some other brand?

Also, haven't had much success finding these on the web, does anyone know of a supplier for Tamiya/Clark IR receivers?

Thinking of getting a Mato M10.

Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

You can also get a Clark base and use a Tamiya unit if it is the Clark equipped M-10. Dean was selling some base, but you can also get it from Clark as well.

The one that M-10 comes with is a simple sensor on a stick.

Thanks for the info Mike!  Good to know. It is in fact the Clark equipped M10 & MatoMart sent me a pic of the receiver that is as you described - simple sensor on a stick. Good enough for now.

No problem let me know if you have any specific questions. I got the Mato Clark M-10 when it first came out. Sold it to my buddy in the states but still remember bits and pieces. It comes with a nice carrying case which I kept and still use for bring radios to the field !

Thanks Mike, will do! FYI I ordered the Mato Clark M-36. It was a toss up between that and the M10. Basically the same tank as you know, different turret. Thanks again.

Those MATO tank destroyer's sure are tempting..
