Authentic Scale Driving with the Tamiya 23805 Volvo FH16

When it comes to RC tractor trucks, Tamiya sets a high standard. The Tamiya 23805 Volvo FH16 Globetrotter reproduces the look and presence of the full-size rig while delivering dependable performance for model truck builders and collectors alike.

Detailed Scale Craftsmanship

The cabin, chassis and exterior trim show careful attention to scale detail. Tamiya recreates interior features like dash panels and seating so the model looks right both parked and on the move. These realistic touches enhance display value and on-track appeal.

Driving Dynamics

Underneath the body the drivetrain and suspension are arranged to give steady handling. The combination of rugged gearing and a tuned suspension helps the model cope with uneven ground, making it suited to extended runs on tracks or large outdoor layouts.

Upgrade and Tweak Options

Hobbyists who enjoy modifying their rigs will find room to adjust motor choices and suspension settings. Simple swaps and setup changes let you prioritise torque, top speed or on-road stability depending on how you like to run the truck.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/14
  • Drive Type: 2WD

  • Length: 733mm

The Tamiya 23805 Volvo FH16 Globetrotter is a rewarding build for anyone who values scale accuracy and dependable drive performance, whether for display or regular running sessions.

This is a finished operation model but you will still need to fit compatible radio gear and a battery to operate the truck.
It performs best on compacted dirt, pavement and purpose-built RC tracks where the suspension and tyres can work effectively.
Yes, replacing the stock 540-brushed motor with a suitable brushless unit is a common upgrade, but check gearing and ESC compatibility first.
Regularly inspect leaf springs and connections for wear, keep pivot points clean, and lubricate moving parts to retain smooth action.
