Tamiya 48215 Modern Type 10 1/35 RC Tank Kit  [48215]

Compact Power: Tamiya Type 10 in 1/35 Scale

The Tamiya 1/35 Type 10 Tank RC Kit brings a modern main battle tank into a compact hobby package, balancing scale accuracy with practical functionality. Built to echo the Japan Ground Self Defense Force Type 10, the kit appeals to modellers who want operational realism without massive footprint.

Key Traits of the Real Type 10

The operational Type 10 is fitted with a 120mm smoothbore weapon and modular armour panels that allow role-specific fittings. Its integrated battlefield systems and mobility make it a modern example of Japanese tank engineering.

Internal Drive and Control Hardware

Radio control and motor management are handled by the TTU-10 transmitter and MC-07 receiver/motor control unit, each with built-in antennas. The drivetrain uses dual assembly gearboxes and Type 130 motors, plus additional Type 130 motors to move the turret and elevate the gun for convincing action.

Practical Handling and Assembly Tips

The transmitter layout gives straightforward stick and button control, with four selectable speed ranges to match your running style. Pre-assembled tracks and tension adjusters simplify the build, helping you get to running sooner while keeping realistic movement.

For hobbyists wanting a modern armour subject that is both compact and fully operational, the Tamiya Type 10 kit provides an enjoyable blend of modelling detail and practical RC control.
