The Tamiya Scania R470 Highline brings the renowned R-series long-haul truck to the 1/14 scale R/C tractor truck world. Reflecting Scania’s award-winning design, this model delivers realistic proportions and driving character, making it a favourite for radio control truck enthusiasts. Part number HC-56318 adds a premium European tractor unit to Tamiya’s celebrated 1/14 series.
Underneath the detailed exterior is a robust ladder-type frame combining aluminium and plastic components, with front and rear rigid axles supported by metal leaf springs. Power is delivered through a 2-axle drivetrain with bevel gear differentials and a 3-gear transmission that can be shifted via the transmitter for realistic on-road driving. An electric 540 motor provides dependable propulsion, while aluminium dummy dampers contribute to the truck’s scale stance.
Proportions, geometry and gearing are tuned for smooth, scale-accurate performance. Whether cruising in first for precise manoeuvres or shifting up through the ratios, the R470 Highline captures the essence of a European long-distance tractor.
