Tamiya TA56368 RC SCANIA 770 S 6X4
Tamiya’s series of ultra-realistic 1/14 scale R/C trucks has offered fun and realistic driving for the past several decades! This kit adds to the selection of trucks available in the series with the Scania 770 S 6X4!
The kit seen here recreates the Scania 770 S 6x4 produced by the Swedish manufacturer Scania. The Scania 770 S 6x4 is one of the trailer heads in Scania’s top-grade S Series – which had undergone a full model change in 2016. This trailer head features a double rear-axle drive 6x4 chassis equipped with a 16.4-liter V8 diesel turbo engine capable of 770hp which was the most powerful in the industry as of 2020.

Comments: The Tamiya Multi Function Control Unit #56523 is not included and provides many different truck related sound effects.
Both vehicle types require a 4 channel stick type radio for full function. If you're going to outfit your vehicle with one of our multifunction units (MFU), you will need to choose a analog radio. Shifting into gear is extremely easy once your transmission is adjusted correctly.
Our Semi trucks and Highlifts use 3speed transmissions for more maneuverability and true scale realism. Whether you're hauling a big load or climbing some rough terrain, the ability to shift into low gear can make the difference. High speed runs are no problem once you kick it into 3rd gear, when its time to move out!
Below you will see the basic concept on how the servo moves the transmission into all three gears. It is best to get the transmission adjusted with your trims centered and only using the collar on the transmission rod to adjust final increments. This will allow for the best operation if you're using a MFU unit.
*Make sure to use loctite on the grub screw in the collar to prevent having to readjust the transmission again.
*Taking a little extra time to set the transmission up will provide you with better performance and less adjustments down the road
