Bring Scale Tipping to Life with the Tamiya 56545 Kit

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.

Compact ACU-01 Unit with Geared Type 280 Motor

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.

Built-in Limits and System Compatibility

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.

Suited to Hobbyists and Collectors

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.

Specifications

  • Compatibility: Tamiya 1/14 scale R/C dump truck models
  • Motor: Geared Type 280 motor, 64:1 ratio
  • Control Unit: ACU-01 actuator control unit
  • Recommended Radio: Tamiya 4ch Attack 2.4GHz transmitter

Tamiya 56545 provides a tidy, reliable solution for adding authentic tipping action to 1/14 scale tippers, balancing simple installation with accurate movement control.

as usual a very fast and efficient company to deal with.
Installation is generally straightforward on Tamiya 1/14 scale tipper chassis that match the Arocs mounting points, though small adjustments or brackets may be needed for non standard layouts.
The actuator uses a single channel on a 4-channel system. Any 4ch transmitter will work, and Tamiya recommends their 4ch Attack 2.4GHz radio for convenient setup.
Yes, the actuator integrates with normal ESC arrangements and Tamiya controllers like MFC-01 and MFC-03. It cannot be used at the same time as Motorized Support Legs (Item 56505) due to shared channel use.
