The Tamiya 56545 Actuator Set is built to give realistic dumping sequences to the Mercedes-Benz Arocs 3348 Dump Truck and other 1/14 scale tipper models. It focuses on repeatable, smooth operation so your truck behaves like the real thing during demonstrations.
The ACU-01 houses a geared Type 280 motor running at a 64:1 ratio, delivering steady lift and return motion for the dump bed. The actuator is designed to work with a standard 4-channel radio, for example Tamiya's 4ch Attack 2.4GHz, for simple control mapping.
Limit switches prevent overextension and help protect the actuator mechanism. Be aware this unit shares its R/C channel with the Motorized Support Legs (Item 56505), so they cannot be used at the same time. It can be configured alongside standard ESCs and Tamiya multi-function units like MFC-01 and MFC-03.
This actuator is a worthwhile upgrade for anyone building or restoring 1/14 scale tipper trucks, providing dependable performance for both newcomers and seasoned modelers who want lifelike operation.
Tamiya 56545 provides a tidy, reliable solution for adding authentic tipping action to 1/14 scale tippers, balancing simple installation with accurate movement control.
