About the Tamiya 56305 Mercedes-Benz 1838LS Kit

The Tamiya 56305 Mercedes-Benz 1838LS reproduces the cab-over truck in 1/14 scale with crisp styling and authentic cues. It is aimed at enthusiasts who appreciate a realistic build and enjoy fine detailing work during assembly.

Realistic Engineering and Components

This model is built to reflect real-world construction. An aluminium ladder chassis and solid axle suspension mirror the truck's structural layout, and features like the working fifth wheel and rubber tyres add to authenticity. The 3-speed gearbox supplies gear steps from 10.6:1 to 32.4:1 to suit different loads and speeds.

Personalisation and Future Upgrades

Tamiya hop-up parts are available to refine both appearance and performance. Typical upgrades include oil shocks and aluminium wheels, and the chassis layout makes it straightforward to add a 4-channel radio if you want extra functions later on.

The Tamiya 56305 Mercedes-Benz 1838LS suits collectors and model drivers seeking a detailed, upgradeable truck kit that balances scale realism with a practical upgrade path.

A 4-channel radio is useful to control steering and throttle and to add auxiliary functions such as lights or tilt if you install extra servos.
Official Tamiya hop-up parts and many third-party accessories are available through hobby stores and online retailers specialising in scale truck components.
The vehicle requires a 7.2V battery pack and a matching charger, both of which must be purchased separately from the kit.
Routine checks and basic maintenance are straightforward; keeping moving parts cleaned and serviced will preserve performance and longevity.
