Scale Accuracy of the Tamiya KV-1 in 1/16

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.

Battle Effects, Turret Motion and Audio

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.

Propulsion Layout and Suspension Details

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.

They are always happy to help, I have spent thousands here and so not one glitch like this shop will like to go and visit there one day
Build time varies by skill level; expect several weekends for careful assembly, painting and electronics installation. Rushing may affect fit and finish.
Many replacement parts are obtainable from suppliers or hobby dealers. Tracks, drive components and small fittings are common wear items and can be replaced if needed.
Regular inspection of torsion bars, checking track tension and cleaning debris from the suspension will keep performance consistent. Light lubrication and tightening fasteners as required help longevity.
Yes, once equipped with the optional LED battle system and properly painted, the KV-1 is suitable for skirmish events and club battles that accept 1/16 scale models.
