RC Car,1:14 RC Volvo FH16 Timber Transporter

The Volvo FH16 is one of the most popular trucks among drivers. Now this highlight is also available as a TAMIYA model and this in a wooden transporter version.
The model is delivered as a kit and already includes numerous accessory parts such as photo-etched parts for the radiator grille, turnbuckles with chains for securing the load and much more.
The over 70 cm long model is driven via the two rear axles. Sufficient power is provided by the powerful TAMIYA TR Mighty Tuned Truck engine (35T) and good traction is ensured by the chunky tyres.
The TAMIYA MFC-03 multifunction unit (300056523) is recommended for the drive, lighting and sound. Due to the enormous length of the model only the standard MFC LED's have to be replaced by the special ones with longer cable (56549 to 56551).<br The FH16 is the first TAMIYA truck model where the driver's cab is firmly screwed on. This allows the MFC to be installed behind the seats and the interior is fully visible.
