Tamiya Volvo FH12 Globetrotter 420 Assembly Kit, Kit No. 56312

The FH series semi-tractor truck was released in the fall of 1993 and became Volvo's primary truck. In 1994, it was awarded the prestigious "Truck of the Year" title. It's huge 12-liter inter cooled turbo diesel engine was known as the "Euro 2", and was the result of state-of-the-art engineering technology for its day.

The Tamiya rendition faithfully captures the truck's form with the use of ABS plastic body parts and a number of metal chassis components. The chassis is built for durability as it uses aluminium side channels with resin cross members. Drivability is accomplished by power from the front-mounted motor and is transmitted via a propeller shaft to the rear axle; built-in differential gears guarantee smooth cornering. Gear changes can be made via a separately-sold Tamiya 4-channel transmitter which controls the shift changes to the 3-speed transmission.

Requires 4-channel transmitter, 7.2-volt Ni-Cd or Ni-MH battery pack with compatible charger, 2 servos, ESC and Tamiya paint to complete. Sold separately

Postage:
Due to the sheer size and weight of the Tamiya 1/14 Scale trucks, we are unable to provide free postage on these kits, therefore the trucks we have, will be subject to a postage charge which will in turn insure the total cost of the kit against loss/damage.
All orders paid for by 2.45pm will be posted that same business day.
