True-to-scale running with the Tamiya 56010 Tiger I

This 1/16 scale Tiger I kit from Tamiya is aimed at modellers who want a faithful miniature that also functions well under radio control. The kit balances detail with practical operation for hobby use and display.

Design and legacy of the Tiger I

Known for its thick armour and potent main gun, the Tiger I left a strong mark on armoured warfare. Tamiya reproduces the vehicle's characteristic form and fittings, letting builders capture its wartime presence.

Real effects and robust track construction

The model includes a working main cannon with flash and recoil plus authentic MG34 firing simulation. Resin and metal track components deliver reliable traction and a convincing appearance while moving.

Engine and mechanical sound detail

Detailed engine sounds respond to throttle and direction, offering start-up tones and changes under load. Mechanical cues from the gearbox and turret bring added realism to running sessions.

What you will need to run it

A suitable four-channel radio system is required, together with two 7.2V Tamiya Racing Packs and a compatible charger. The kit requires assembly, so allow time for construction and setup before running.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/16
  • Length: 530mm
  • Width: 232mm
  • Power Requirements: Two 7.2V batteries
  • RC Unit: 4-Channel

Tamiya 56010 is well suited to collectors and RC pilots who want historically accurate styling with the option to run and enjoy the model outdoors or on layout tracks.

Bernard was very helpful in answering all my questions. Furthermore, Bernard expedited my package to the US at no additional charge...excellent customer service. I would definitely purchase from RCJaz in the future.
Yes, the kit is built to be motorised and driven once you fit the required batteries and radio equipment included separately.
Enamel and acrylic model paints both work well; many builders prime plastic parts first and use thin coats to preserve fine detail.
Yes, the turret rotates and is designed to be controlled via the model's radio-operated systems once assembled and fitted.
Beginners can build it but should expect a detailed assembly process; pairing with an experienced modeller or following step-by-step guides helps achieve the best finish.
