RC Car,1:14 RC Volvo FH16 Tow Truck 8x4
With the Volvo FH16, TAMIYA presents the first truck with 4 axles and steerable double axle at the front. The chassis has been converted to 8x4 and is the perfect basis for the tow truck. The crane body is extremely robust and consists of many metal parts. The crane is powered by an optionally available ACU unit (order number 300056553). This unit can be used to move the crane up and down.
The model is supplied as a kit and already includes numerous add-on parts, such as photo-etched parts for the radiator grille, turnbuckles with chains for securing the load and much more.
The model has an impressive length of over 70 cm and is driven by the two rear axles. The TAMIYA TR Mighty Tuned truck engine (35T) provides sufficient power.
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 LEDs need to be replaced by the special ones with longer cables (300056549 to 300056551).
The FH16 is the first TAMIYA truck model in which the driver's cab is permanently bolted on. This means that the MFC can be installed behind the seats and the interior is fully visible.
