The Tamiya 69926 Amphibious Vehicle Kit is a practical way to learn about propulsion and motion through hands-on building. This colour option of the 70119 model pairs clear mechanics with a bold blue and yellow look for display or lab use.
Parts are primarily snap-fit for a clean build, with a small number of screws to secure key areas. The assembled model is 175mm long, 89mm wide and 54mm high, compact enough for bench testing.
Buoyancy is achieved via Styrofoam floats while a screw propeller provides water thrust, driven by the Submarine Motor. On land, drive is applied to the rear wheels through a worm gear, illustrating two distinct propulsion setups.
The rudder and front wheel angles can be adjusted to make the vehicle circle in both water and on land. These simple tweaks help demonstrate steering effects and handling differences.
