Tamiya Volvo FH16 750 8x4 Tow Truck Silver 1/14 RC Kit [47528]

Description:

Build an impressive scale recovery vehicle with the limited-edition Tamiya Volvo FH16 Globetrotter 750 8x4 Tow Truck Silver Edition. This highly detailed 1/14 scale RC assembly kit recreates Volvo’s powerful 750-horsepower FH16 tow truck with a massive four-axle chassis, realistic recovery equipment and a premium pre-painted finish.

The cab and tow-truck body components are factory-painted silver and finished with a glossy urethane topcoat. Detailed features include opening cab doors, a photo-etched stainless-steel front grille, plated roof accessories and a detailed interior.

The front-mounted TR Mighty-Tuned 35T motor transfers power through a transmitter-operated three-speed transmission to the two driven rear axles. Both front axles steer for realistic handling, while the aluminum ladder-frame chassis and metal leaf-spring suspension provide a durable and authentic construction.

The manually operated towing equipment includes an adjustable winch boom, dual winches, extendable underlift, adjustable towing forks and extendable outriggers. Optional Tamiya electronic equipment can add remotely controlled recovery functions, lighting, sound and vibration.

This is an unassembled RC vehicle kit. Radio equipment, servos, speed control, battery and charger are required separately.
