Description

TIMBERRRRR!!
Volvo is a renowned actor in the global commercial vehicle market, with one of their flagship brands being the FH Series that underwent a full model change in 2012. This R/C model assembly kit recreates the 750hp 16.1-liter turbocharged inline-6 engine FH16 Globetrotter 750 6x4 timber truck from that range. The model has a realistic body, and a chassis featuring numerous metal parts. Gear changes are also possible via transmitter controls.
★Ladder frame features aluminum side channels with resin cross members. ★Depictions of stakes and cab rear headboard use a durable combination of resin and metal. ★Power from the front-mounted motor is delivered to rear axles via propeller shaft. A built-in differential gear on each axle enables smooth cornering. ★Highly-realistic suspension utilizes metal leaf springs and friction dampers. The model enjoys easy driving thanks to the float-mounted die-cast front and reinforced resin rear axles. ★The highly accurate body captures the FH16 Globetrotter form, with stainless steel photo-etched front grille, and cab interior details. ★TR Mighty Tuned motor (35T) provides plenty of power, even when driving with loads.

★This view shows off the brand new timber bed design, complete with stakes to keep the lumber load intact.
★Optional on the actual truck, the roof lamps give a realistic look, with horn, antennae and more.
★The distinctive side mirrors are recreated faithfully, by metal-plated parts for an authentic finish.
★Here is a close-up of the photo-etched parts, which adorn the finely molded depiction of the cab.
★3-speed transmission allows gear changes on the move when used with a separately-sold 4ch transmitter.
★Rear trunnion type suspension mimics that of full size trucks. The friction damper has a metal cylinder.
★A close-up of the dual rear tires, which are given realistic tread pattern for plenty of grip.
★There is plenty of detail, highlighted here by side guards, tank shield and sanding gear depictions.
★Metal-plated resin headboard and resin stake components secure durability and superb realism.
★We haven't forgotten the details - the rear steps are recreated by resin parts with a plated finish.
★Why not use the separately sold MFC-03 unit to light up components such as the square taillights?
★Chains and lever block parts are also included in this comprehensive kit, for display purposes.
★Fitting the separately sold MFC-03 unit will also allow lighting up of headlights, fog lamps and more.
★Why not load up your timber truck with some realistic papercraft lumber - templates below!
