Tamiya 70247 4-Track Crawler: A Versatile Educational Model Kit

The Tamiya 70247 4-Track Crawler is an intriguing addition to the STEM series, offering a hands-on experience for both young learners and hobbyists interested in mechanical structures. This model is designed with three-sided crawlers instead of the traditional four-wheel setup, allowing it to navigate uneven terrain with ease.

Design and Features

Measuring 200mm in length, 103mm in width, and 100mm in height, this crawler weighs 266g and boasts a robust design. Its innovative track system consists of belt-type tracks, drive sprockets, and two road wheels, which provide remarkable traction across various surfaces, including snow. The front axle's ability to rotate around the propeller shaft enhances its performance on challenging terrains.

Assembly and Compatibility

This assembly kit includes all necessary components for a straightforward snap-fit and screw-together construction, making it accessible for builders of different skill levels. The model operates with a type 130 motor and requires two AA batteries (not included). For those looking to customize, the roll bar parts can be removed to attach bodies from the Wild Mini 4WD Series. Additionally, the standard tracks can be upgraded to link-type tracks (Item 70237) for improved ground traction.
