Introducing the Tamiya Knight Hauler 56314 model

The Tamiya Knight Hauler 56314 is a finely detailed 1/14 scale tractor truck kit for modellers who prefer authentic appearance and functional detailing. The design reflects real tractor proportions while providing builders with choices for electronics and finishing touches.

Precision styling and chrome-like finishes

The model incorporates a formed hood, a large roof spoiler and an accurately detailed cabin area, with clear orange lenses for lamp realism. Metal-plated items such as the grille, fuel tank, exhaust and steps create a polished look. The kit is supplied with a 540 class motor and decals, while a 7.2V battery and radio gear are sold separately for user selection.

Bring it to life with the MFC-01 module

Fitting the optional Multi-Function Control Unit MFC-01 introduces 24 digital sound recordings that mimic engine and truck system noises. The unit installs inside the left-side toolbox for neat packaging and easy access to controls.

Extensive LED and audio package for realism

The lighting system comprises 20 high-output LEDs to simulate headlights, fog lights, roof units and more, all controllable via the transmitter. The sound library includes start-up, idle and other effects to enhance running realism on track or at shows.

Choice of trailers for display and hauling

The Knight Hauler is compatible with four trailer formats: boxcar, tank, flatbed and pole trailers, enabling a variety of load types and visual layouts. Coupled with a long trailer the completed rig can measure up to around one metre.

  • Scale: 1/14
  • Total Length: 630mm
  • Total Width: 186mm
  • Chassis Material: Aluminum and polycarbonate plastic

Tamiya Knight Hauler 56314 is a strong choice for experienced builders and collectors seeking a detailed tractor truck that supports sound, light and trailer customisation.

The kit does not include the radio system or battery pack. It includes the motor and decals, so you will need to fit a receiver, servo and a suitable 7.2V battery pack.
Run wiring along chassis channels and secure joints with shrink tubing or heatproof tape. Test each LED and connector before finalising the body mounts to avoid difficult rework.
LiPo batteries can be used if you adapt the battery tray and use an appropriate voltage regulator and connectors. Ensure safe charging and proper mounting to prevent damage.
Keep metal-plated surfaces clean and dry, avoid abrasive cleaners, and touch up minor scratches with recommended polish or protective coatings to preserve the finish.
