Scale Workhorse Build: Tamiya 56366-56545 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4151

The Tamiya 56366-56545 captures the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4151 in 1/14 scale, combining accurate exterior detail with a mechanically faithful chassis. This kit is suited to modellers who enjoy realistic, functional scale trucks.

Robust Chassis and Suspension

The chassis features aluminium side channels and resin cross members to emulate a heavy truck frame. Metal leaf springs and friction dampers work together to provide steady suspension action and good weight control when the model is loaded.

Detailed Bodywork and Drive Layout

The injection-moulded cab includes scale touches like cab rails and intake ducts, while separate mirrors and visors allow precise finishing. Power comes from a TR mighty-tuned 540 brushed motor driving the rear tandem axles and a single servo steering both front axles.

Upgrades for Motion and Effects

Enhance the model with the separately sold Actuator Set (Item 56545) to operate the truck bed remotely via a 4-channel transmitter. Fit an MFC-01 or MFC-03 unit to add realistic lighting sequences and sound for static display or running events.

The Tamiya 56366-56545 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4151 is a solid pick for experienced hobbyists who enjoy detailed assembly and realistic mechanical function. It makes a compelling showpiece and a satisfying runner once complete.
