Introduction to the Tamiya 70094 Walking Elephant

The Tamiya 70094 Walking Elephant provides a clear, practical project for model builders and students learning fundamentals of mechanics. It blends a pleasant build with instructive examples of how simple machines work together to produce movement.

Motion Mechanics

The walking behaviour is produced by an FA-130 motor teamed with a compact gearbox to create a steady swaying action. The pre-cut wooden components and included plastic link rod simplify construction while illustrating essential mechanical relationships.

Contents and Build Advice

The kit supplies pre-drilled wood parts and a strong plastic link rod so builders can focus on fitting and alignment. It is well suited to classroom demonstrations or individual study projects that highlight gearing and linkage concepts.

Specifications

  • Material: Pre-cut wood and plastic
  • Motor: FA-130
  • Movement: Motorized with swaying action
  • Assembly: Requires basic tools
Younger builders should have adult supervision, especially when using hobby knives or soldering to connect the motor to a power source.
Yes, pre-painting can give a cleaner finish; sand and prime the parts first and allow paint to fully cure before final assembly.
The FA-130 motor works with common low-voltage hobby power packs and battery packs, but verify voltage and current requirements before connecting.
