TAMIYA RC 1/14 MERCEDES-BENZ AROCS 3348 6X4 TIPPER TRUCK

Tamiya RC 1/14 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3348 6x4 Tipper Truck - Unassembled Kit

Take on heavy-duty hauling with the Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3348 6x4 Tipper Truck. Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring construction, so builders should expect to assemble the ladder frame chassis, transmission, and driveline before driving. The Arocs series is a line of heavy-duty models Daimler AG introduced in 2013, and this kit recreates the dual rear axle-driven Arocs 3348 6x4 tipper truck, which in real life runs on a 12.8-liter turbocharged inline-6 engine capable of 480hp. Mercedes-Benz trademarks are used under license from Mercedes-Benz Group AG.

The highly detailed body captures the truck cab's slimline form, including its distinctive bucket-tooth grille design, headlight guards, front bumper, and underbody skid plate. The ladder frame uses aluminum side channels with resin cross members, and a realistic 1-piece resin bed is reinforced with a metal frame. Power from the front-mounted TR Mighty-Tuned motor reaches the rear axles via propeller shaft, with a built-in differential on each axle for smooth cornering, while metal leaf-spring suspension and friction dampers, plus float-mounted die-cast front and reinforced resin rear axles, keep driving easy. An assembly-type 3-speed transmission allows gear changes via a separately available 4-channel transmitter.
