I would say mostly because it's cool, and you can't run a 1/16 tamiya 
through a large bush or small trees ;-)

all the battles would not be fought this way. I also enjoy following my tank 
around shooting at stuff, it's more fun than just sitting on the sideline, 
but I do think that mixing things up a bit will add to the fun. It would 
also make for some cool footage.

I was thinking more of a mixture of the two. Have a camera in the tank and a 
screen mounted on you transmitter so when you go flying past some one you 
dont have to be behind your turret to aim. But I guess that tiny little 
screen would be expensive and heavy.
