The Tamiya RC 1/14 Scania R470 Highline from our radio controlled trucks, trailers, and construction vehicles range accurately recreates the real life truck.About the Model 1/14 scale electric RC assembly kit of the Scania R470 Highline. Aerodynamic body is precisely reproduced and front grill features mesh material for realistic look. Faithfully reproduced cabin tilts forward separately from fenders, just like on the full-size truck. Fender interiors and exteriors are fully depicted for the ultimate in accuracy and realism. Durable ladder frame chassis consists of aluminum channel and resin cross member. Kit-included coupler enables use of any of Tamiya's currently available 1/14 scale trailers. Includes assembly type 3-speed transmission. Use of separately available 4-channel transmitter allows gear shifting during running. Front and rear suspension consists of metal leaf springs and coil spring dampers. Durable die-cast metal front axle is float mounted on leaf spring and damper. Resin rear axle features differential gear. Propeller shaft transmits power from front mounted motor to rear wheels. Pin type propeller shaft joint reduces friction loss. Type 540 motor included.

I will start by saying, Wonderland Models give outstanding customer service, are always friendly, and always point you in the right direction. I ordered my Tamiya Scania over Bank Holiday weekend, and I was informed straight away every time my order was updated. The kit arrived in very good time, well packaged and neatly presented. I would certainly recommend Wonderland Models to anyone, for the customer service alone. Many thanks! :)

I was slightly wary as this is my first RC kit but the great price swayed me .Quick delivery from wonderland meant I was soon opening the box. I was immediately impressed with quality of the components with very little tidying up required.Easy to follow instructions once fully read through and if you make a mistake you can unscrew it and go back. Can be built without initially buying the RC servos etc (as I did) as these are easily fitted later. This has built into a very satisfying model with loads of upgrades and additions available and with some fine tuning moves really well. Steering lock is a bit poor but I`ve modified this at no extra cost. I`m hooked - this won`t be my last !!
