Volvo Globetrotter FH16 6x4 Timber Truck TAM56360 kit

Tamiya’s 1/14 scale R/C semi-truck assembly kit model of a timber truck with long rear bed features a distinctive frame and stakes for carrying logs.

It captures in high detail the Volvo FH16 Globetrotter, a 750hp 16.1-liter turbocharged engine powered truck.

This version was the Swedish company Volvo’s flagship FH Series that underwent a full model change in 2012. The ABS plastic body captures the FH16 Globetrotter form, with stainless steel photo-etched front grille, and cab interior details.

Depictions of stakes and cab rear headboard use a durable combination of resin and metal. Assembly type 3-speed transmission allows gear changes via separately sold 4-channel transmitter.

Power from the front-mounted motor is delivered to rear axles via propeller shaft. A built-in differential gear on each axle enables smooth cornering. Ladder frame features aluminum side channels with plastic cross members.

A highly-realistic suspension utilizes metal leaf springs and friction dampers. The model drives easily thanks to the float-mounted die-cast front and reinforced resin rear axles.

TR Mighty Tuned motor (35T) provides plenty of power, even when driving with loads. Printable templates for the creation of paper craft logs available for download!
