The Tamiya 23629 King Hauler captures the look and presence of classic US tractor trucks in a 1/14 scale package that appeals to scale modders and display builders. This RTR model blends careful styling with a chassis layout meant to mirror real truck engineering.
Built on an aluminium ladder frame, the King Hauler uses a 3-speed gearbox to provide a range of driving ratios for cruising and low-speed torque. The combination of solid axles and leaf spring suspension helps reproduce the movement and stance of a full-size truck across different surfaces.
Fitted with the Multi-Function Unit MFC-01, the model features multiple LEDs for front and signal lighting, plus 24 recorded sound sequences and a vibration module to simulate engine and transmission feedback. These elements combine to enhance realism when driving or demonstrating the model.
Measuring 600mm in length with a 447mm wheelbase, the King Hauler is substantial both on display and when running. The painted bodywork and chrome-trimmed metal accessories add scale visual appeal, and a Futaba 4-channel transmitter is supplied to control steering, throttle and functions. A 7.2V battery pack and charger are required but not included.
Whether you want a showpiece or a base for upgrades, the Tamiya King Hauler combines accurate lines with functional systems for a satisfying scale truck project.
