The Tamiya 57059 - 1/10 Ford F-350 High-Lift R/C Kit reproduces the rugged profile of the Ford F-350 in accurate 1/10 scale. With a true ladder frame and a 3-speed transmission, this kit appeals to modelers who prioritise scale accuracy and functional detail.
The kit features an injection-moulded body over large diameter wheels to reflect the lifted stance. Structural parts like the ladder frame, leaf springs and friction dampers are metal for durability, and the chrome-look roll bar, bumpers and grille add realistic highlights.
Power is delivered through a 4WD shaft drive and a newly designed 3-speed transmission that enables gear changes on the move. A slipper clutch protects gears from shock, while propeller shafts with universal joints maintain torque through suspension movement.
The leaf spring suspension and friction dampers let builders tune the ride by changing grease and O-rings to suit different surfaces. The selectable 4-wheel steering option improves low-speed manoeuvrability when tight turning is needed.
For extra realism, the optional Multi-Function Unit can be installed to reproduce vehicle sounds and operate LEDs for headlights and tail lights, adding to the visual and auditory detail of your model.
This Ford F-350 High-Lift kit suits hobbyists looking for a combination of scale fidelity and practical off-road performance, with plenty of scope for setup and upgrades.
