The Tamiya Ford Aeromax (HC-56309) brings an American-style rig to Tamiya’s renowned 1/14 scale tractor truck line-up. It combines large-scale realism with authentic operation, featuring a servo-shifted 3-speed transmission mounted to a robust aluminium ladder frame.
Selectable low, medium and high ratios can be engaged on the move in both forward and reverse, delivering a realistic driving experience. Solid axles, metal friction dampers and a bevel gear differential provide a planted feel on the road, while the styrene body and chrome wheels capture the full-size truck’s presence.
Driving Functions
- Tamiya 3-Speed Transmission allows shift-on-the-fly Low/Med/High in forward and reverse.
- Forward: gears can be switched while moving, or pre-selected before setting off. Going too fast could result in flipping the truck.
- Reverse: gears can be switched while moving, or pre-selected. Excessive speed in reverse may cause a jack-knife.
- Steering: proportional control via the right stick (left/right) while in motion.
