Tamiya 70169 Rescue Crawler: A STEM Educational Experience

The Tamiya 70169 Rescue Crawler is a versatile educational kit that offers a hands-on learning experience in the world of robotics and mechanics. Designed for hobbyists interested in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), this model provides an engaging way to explore basic engineering principles through assembly and operation.

Innovative Design and Functionality

This R/C rescue crawler is equipped with three pairs of tracks, allowing it to maneuver over challenging terrains. The front two tracks can be adjusted between 80 degrees upward and 20 degrees downward, enabling the model to overcome obstacles that typical R/C vehicles cannot. Additionally, the rear-mounted crane arm is fully controllable, simulating real-world rescue operations by picking up or dragging objects.

Educational Assembly and Components

The kit includes all necessary parts for assembly, such as a twin motor gearbox, 4-speed crank gearbox, and a 3-channel R/C unit. These components provide a practical introduction to mechanical systems and remote control technology. The universal plate included allows for further customization and experimentation, making it an excellent tool for those interested in mechanical engineering concepts.

Power Requirements

Please note that the model requires two R20/D/UM1 batteries, which are sold separately. This ensures that the kit remains affordable while allowing users to select their preferred battery brand.

Specifications

  • Material: Plastic
  • Power Source: Requires 2 x R20/D/UM1 batteries (not included)
