Origins and Model Focus of the Tamiya 56011

The Tamiya 56011 recreates the classic Tiger I in 1/16 scale, offering a detailed modelling challenge. Tamiya supplies the DMD control unit for precise motion and realistic sound cues that boost immersion during running sessions.

Fine Scale Detailing

Detail work is a highlight on the Tamiya 56011, with accurate turret fittings and track construction mirroring the full size tank. The kit includes a strong motor and a tuned suspension system to keep movement smooth over mixed surfaces.

Designed for Modders and Collectors

Geared toward experienced builders, the kit benefits from the DMD T03 controller which gives reliable steering and throttle response. Careful assembly yields a durable display piece that also performs well outdoors.

Where This Kit Fits Among RC Tanks

Against entry-level models, the Tamiya 56011 stands out for its scale fidelity and mechanical features. Builders who enjoy authentic assembly and realistic operating behaviour will prefer this model to simpler alternatives.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/16
  • Control Unit: DMD T03
  • Motor: High-torque electric motor
  • Suspension: Functional suspension system
  • Sound Effects: Realistic engine and battle sounds

The Tamiya 56011 suits builders who value historical accuracy and enjoy a substantial build. It makes a rewarding addition to a collection or an active modelling roster.

Assembly time varies with experience, but expect multiple evenings for painting, fitting and detailing to reach a high standard.
The DMD T03 is straightforward for experienced RC users; basic radio and power connections are required and setup notes are included in the manual.
The functional suspension and track design cope well with firm grass and compacted gravel, though very soft ground may limit performance.
Upgrading to alternative speed controllers or sound units is possible, but some modifications may be needed to fit aftermarket components.
