For hobbyists seeking true-to-life scale detail, the Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Arocs 56357 delivers precise modelling and mechanical fidelity. This 1/14 scale tipper reproduces the look and working elements of the full-size truck, appealing to both display builders and active RC drivers.
The model reflects Tamiya's focus on authentic form and function. The tipper body, cab features and external fittings are modelled with care. You can fit the optional Actuator Set (Item 56545) to operate the truck bed remotely via your radio gear.
The chassis uses a ladder frame with aluminum side rails and resin cross members for strength. Metal leaf springs and friction dampers form the suspension, while rear differentials aid cornering and stability over mixed surfaces.
A front-mounted motor drives a 3-speed transmission that gives a realistic driving feel. Twin rear axles supply traction for heavy loads. Add a 4-channel R/C system and a multi-function unit (sold separately) to enable lights, sounds and vibration effects.
The Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Arocs 56357 combines detailed scale appearance with a sturdy chassis and realistic drivetrain, making it a fine choice for serious RC modellers.
