This 1/14 scale beauty is perfect for the experienced kit builder, with the reward being a fully functional, heavy-duty tow truck that's ready to hit the road (or your backyard). You'll find the task of assembling the detailed cab, intricate tow gear, and powerful drivetrain incredibly satisfying. The realistic tow equipment, including a winch boom, underlift, and outriggers, means you can actually rescue stranded vehicles (or at least pretend to). This is a truck that's built to perform, whether you're cruising around or putting it to work.
Experience the versatility of a 3-speed gearbox! Shift between low, medium, and high gears on the fly to create realistic big rig performance for different terrains and driving styles. Enjoy the flexibility of forward and reverse in each gear, giving you complete control over your RC adventures.
Transform your Tamiya 1/14 semi-truck into a true-to-life masterpiece with the must-have Multi-Function Control Unit (MFC Unit). This incredible unit adds a symphony of realistic sounds, synchronised vibrations that react to the truck's movement, and dazzling LED lights that illuminate every manoeuvre. With 24 different sounds, 9 types of lights, and vibrations that mimic engine idle and acceleration, the MFC Unit brings an unparalleled level of realism to your RC experience.
The ladder frame chassis provides a strong and stable foundation for the truck, combining lightweight aluminium channel side rails with durable plastic cross members for a balance of strength and performance.
