Origins and Upgrades of the M51

The M51 was a Sherman upgrade with improved armament and protection introduced after World War II. Tamiya recreates the essential silhouette and newer fittings so the model reflects the later period enhancements.

Features That Replicate Tank Behaviour

Turret rotation, barrel elevation and sound-friendly mounting points are modelled to give authentic movement, while the supplied ESC and motor deliver predictable throttle response. Metal tracks increase durability when used on hard-packed terrain and club fields.

Tips for a Smooth Assembly

Plan each stage before applying glue, keep instructions handy and sort hardware by step. Community build logs and video walk-throughs are useful resources, and hobbyists often fine tune steering throws and gear lubrication for optimal performance.
