Remote control truck kit on Tamiya chassis with electric motor drive and 3-speed gearbox.

Explanation of abbreviations: KIT - unassembled model delivered in the form of a kit.

Kits of RC car models from the Japanese brand Tamiya are characterized by the best features. Thanks to the very clear construction instructions and the well-thought-out division of construction parts into marked bags, even a complete beginner can handle the construction. Even the basic version of the model from the kit gives a perfect impression of a wonderful RC model, but every Tamiya car kit provides a wide range of tuning options. This kit will give you a unique feeling of joy when you build an RC tractor model all by yourself. It is a great way for children and young people to get to know the construction of a real truck.

The Tamiya chassis in this kit is characterized by high modeling of the structure. The drive of the rear axle/axles is ensured through a 3-speed gearbox with cardan shafts and differentials. One of the three speeds (gear ratios) can be selected manually using mechanical stops (or remotely via an RC transmitter and servo shift). This model has a very attractive appearance, excellent performance and driving characteristics.

The model can be built either as a basic model with only speed and direction controls, or as a fully lit and sounded model using the Tamiya Multifunction-Unit MFC-01 (American tractors) or MFC-03 (European tractors) for trucks. With this MFC, the model gains a whole new level, thanks to realistic lighting, a high-quality sound module and remote control of all functions via an RC transmitter. Model completion options are listed below.

Alternatives of the possible completion of the model:

1. The simplest version
Functions - proportional drive forward/backward, right/left, manual gear selection.
Needed to purchase: 2-3 channel RC set, ESC controller, steering servo, drive battery, charger, batteries for the transmitter, spray paint for plastic.
We recommend the complete Carson 500501015 kit, which includes everything you need, or we can help you select individual components on request.

2. The most perfect execution
Features - proportional drive forward/backward, right/left, remote gear selection, remote light control (3 circuits, many combinations), functional turn signals, reversing and brake lights, realistic sounds of the engine, air system, brakes, horn, etc.
Needed to purchase: 4-6 channel RC set, Tamiya MFC-01 or MFC-03 electronic control unit, steering servo, shift servo, drive battery, charger, transmitter batteries, plastic spray paint.
We recommend the Carson FS 6K Reflex Stick II 2.4GHz transmitter 500501006, Carson servos 6kg, and the Carson Delta Peak 4A charger set with flashlight 5000607013.

WARNING! This RC car is not a toy, but a more sophisticated, functional model that behaves very much like a real car. Due to its realistic parameters, if it is not properly assembled and operated, it can cause you injury, or injure the viewer, or damage property. The model is intended for driving in a large room or outside on a dry surface, in no case can it be driven in water, snow, puddles, mud, sand, tall grass, public roads and other places without additional waterproof treatment (e.g. parking lots) with car traffic. High "hairy" carpets are also unsuitable surfaces. This model requires regular maintenance.
