Tamiya Scania 770 S 56371 - Accurate 1/14 Scale Truck

Hobbyists seeking a faithful miniature will appreciate the Tamiya Scania 770 S 8x4/4, rendered at 1/14 scale with attention to scale proportions and mechanical layout. The genuine Scania 770 S debuted in 2020 with a V8 turbo delivering 770 horsepower, and this kit captures its heavyweight stance in model form.

High Fidelity Cab Construction

Tamiya's moulding reproduces the cab contours and small fittings such as the auxiliary machinery tower, fuel tanks and air tanks. The metal components within the chassis provide structural strength and mirror the original truck's double rear-axle drive and dual front-axle steering arrangement.

Suspension Detail and 3-Speed Unit

The model is fitted with metal leaf springs and a functional lift axle to simulate genuine suspension action. The assembly-type 3-speed transmission enables realistic gear selection when used with a separately sourced 4-channel transmitter.

Sound, Lighting and Vibration Options

The optional Multi-Function Control Unit MFC-03 adds lights, realistic engine sounds and vibration to elevate running realism. Detailed interior mouldings for the dash and seats enhance the cabin when painted and finished.

Finish, Decals and Required Electronics

The kit includes a 1/14 scale driver figure plus cab decals and metal transfers for detailing. To complete the model you will need a 4-channel radio, two servos, an ESC, a 7.2V battery with compatible charger and suitable paints for finishing.

The Tamiya Scania 770 S 8x4/4 offers a precise assembly experience with detailed parts and robust metalwork, making it a fine choice for experienced model makers and truck collectors.

This kit is best suited to builders with some experience, as metal chassis assembly and gearbox construction require careful work and basic modelling skills.
Yes, standard 3mm or 5mm LED units can be installed for headlights and marker lights. Plan wiring routes before final assembly to keep a tidy installation.
The 3-speed transmission is designed to work with a standard channel on a 4-channel transmitter. If you want proportional control, consult compatible servos and a suitable radio setup to map shifting reliably.
Keep metal components clean and dry, apply light machine oil to moving linkages, and store the model out of humid conditions. Touch up exposed metal with protective coatings if needed.
