Tamiya 1/14 Mercedes-Benz Actros 3363 Semi Truck Kit (GigaSpace)

The Tamiya 1/14 Mercedes-Benz Actros 3363 Semi Truck Kit is a highly accurate 1/14 scale replica of the Mercedes Benz Actros 3363 3-axle truck. The Actros series debuted in 2011 and was named 2012 Truck of the Year. The Tamiya rendition faithfully captures the truck's modern form with the use of white ABS plastic body parts and a number of metal chassis components. One look at the detailed interior and auxiliary equipment, such as air tanks, will confirm that the body features replica-quality realism, and is further enhanced with metal transfers depicting emblems and numerous metal-plated parts. The Actros' realism can be further heightened with separately-available trailers that can be attached to its coupler and make the model over a meter in length!

The chassis is built for durability as it uses aluminum 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 4-channel transmitter.
