The Tamiya 56007 1/16 RC German King Tiger Porsche Turret pays homage to one of WWII's most iconic tanks. Known for its formidable presence on the battlefield, the King Tiger was equipped with an 88mm cannon and featured a unique turret designed by Dr. Porsche. Although only fifty units were produced with this turret before the switch to the Henschel design, the Porsche turret variant left a significant mark during the Normandy Invasion.
This RC model is more than just a scaled-down replica; it integrates advanced technology to deliver a realistic driving experience. The heart of this tank is the DMD Control Unit, which utilizes a twin motor gearbox powered by two 380-type motors. This system allows for precise control over a wide range of movements, from subtle pivots to full-speed maneuvers, all controlled via a two-channel FET amplifier.
To operate this impressive RC tank, you'll need a two-channel R/C unit along with a 7.2V Tamiya Racing Pack and charger. While the kit provides everything necessary for assembly, additional items such as TS plastic model paint are recommended for those who wish to add a personal touch to their King Tiger.
The Tamiya 56007 King Tiger with Porsche turret is ideal for RC enthusiasts interested in historical military models. Its detailed construction and advanced control system make it suitable for both collectors and those seeking an authentic driving experience.
