Tamiya Tow truck Volvo kit

The FH model series has always represented the heavyweights at Volvo. With the FH16, particularly in its top engine configuration, an impressive commercial vehicle has been created that can handle the heaviest tasks and loads. Tamiya has taken the FH16 in the 8x4 chassis configuration as a tow truck, marking the first time a 4-axle truck with two steered front axles has been realized as a model. The Globetrotter driver's cabin is accurately designed with many details both inside and out. Special attention was paid to the functionality and realism of the tow bar during construction, incorporating many metal components. Additionally, a separate actuator allows for the tow bar to be operated electrically via the remote control. As with Tamiya trucks, the Tow Truck can also be equipped with a multifunction unit MFC-03, which adds over 30 light and sound functions to enhance realism and maximize play enjoyment. The well-known 35Turn motor from the Timber Truck transmits its power through the familiar 3-speed transmission to the two driven rear axles. In towing mode, only the first gear is available. A 4-channel remote control, a 7.2V NiMh drive battery, a charger, and a speed controller are required for operation.
