Scale Replica: Tamiya JS-2 in 1/16 Scale

Hobby builders with an interest in wartime armour will find the Tamiya 56034 rewarding. This 1/16 version of the JS-2 captures the tank's broad silhouette and heavy plating while preserving the proportions of the original 1944 design.

Operational Details and Controls

The Tamiya 56034 goes beyond static display by offering a full operation set. You'll get a turnable turret, an elevating main gun, and integrated engine sound effects, all operated with a refined radio setup to reproduce realistic motion and audio cues.

Putting the Kit Together

Assembly teaches practical modelling skills and basic RC installation. The step by step instructions walk you through chassis assembly, track fitting, and mounting control gear, making it a constructive project for those who want to learn tracked vehicle mechanics.

Role Compared to Other Military Kits

Within the military lineup, the JS-2 is prized for its historical impact and rugged design. It complements collections that include Axis and Allied vehicles by adding Soviet heavy armour with functional features.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/16
  • Type: RC Tank
  • Features: Full Operation Set, Rotating Turret, Elevating Gun
  • Control: Sophisticated Radio System

Tamiya 56034 JS-2 is suited to modellers who want a hands-on build with operational realism and scale presence.

It can be attempted by a determined first timer, but expect a learning curve around track alignment and radio installation. Starter projects with fewer mechanical parts may be simpler.
The kit is specified for a 7.2V NiMH battery pack. If you convert to other chemistries, ensure you use proper voltage regulation and a compatible charger.
Third party and manufacturer upgrades exist for improved tracks, sound units, and metal detailing parts to raise durability and realism.
With correct setup and sensible surfaces, the chassis handles grass and compact dirt well, but avoid deep mud or water without additional waterproofing.
