## Description

TAMIYA presents the Volvo FH16 the first truck with 4 axles and steerable double axle at the front. The chassis is converted to 8x4 and the perfect base for the tow truck. The crane construction is extremely robust and consists of many metal parts. The crane is powered by an optionally available ACU unit (order number 300056553). With this unit, the crane can be moved up and down. The tow truck now allows the model building fan to create a new world of games. It can pick up and tow the 1/14 model trucks. The model is delivered as a kit and already includes numerous equipment parts, such as photo-etched parts for the radiator grille, turnbuckles with chains for securing loads and much more. The model has a stately length of over 70 cm and is powered 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 drive, lighting and sound. Due to the enormous length of the model, only the series MFC LEDs have to be replaced with the special ones with longer cable (300056549 to 300056551). The FH16 is the first TAMIYA truck model in which the cab is firmly bolted. This allows the MFC to be installed behind the seats and the interior is fully visible.

Review: Very exciting kit! - This is a very nice kit, extremely detailed! This kit also has potential to expand the functions of it, and I cannot wait to do so. I believe I will purchase a 10 channel radio to get more functions out of this vehicle.
