The Tamiya 1/16 KV-1 RC model reproduces the heavy tank's distinctive welded turret and period-correct fittings. Detailed items such as toolboxes and tow cables are included to strengthen authenticity and provide a realistic appearance on display or in action.
With the DMD Control Unit and Multi-Function Unit installed, the KV-1 performs turret rotation and barrel elevation with lifelike control. The unit supplies engine and firing sounds, LED muzzle flashes and simulated barrel and hull recoil. The forward machine gun also creates muzzle flash effects, while adjustable headlights and rear lights improve night operation.
Dual gearboxes powered by two Type 380 motors enable both coordinated drive and independent track control for pivot turns. Metal torsion bars and arms in the suspension, together with broad tracks, ensure the model copes with uneven terrain while maintaining good stability and handling.
Ideal for hobbyists who enjoy building and running historically accurate tanks, the KV-1 blends detailed modelling with practical RC features for engaging skirmishes.
