The Tamiya 69926 Amphibious Vehicle Kit delivers a clear introduction to basic propulsion and motion through an easy build. As a colour variant of the 70119 model, the blue and yellow finish makes it both educational and eye-catching.
The kit uses mostly snap-fit parts plus a handful of screws for firm assembly. Finished dimensions are 175mm length, 89mm width and 54mm height, compact for shelf display or bench testing.
Buoyancy is provided by Styrofoam floats while a screw propeller supplies water thrust via the Submarine Motor. For ground operation the drive is taken through a worm gear to the rear wheels, showing different mechanical approaches to movement.
Adjustable rudder and front wheel settings let you experiment with turning and handling on both land and water, making the kit useful for demonstrations of steering dynamics.
