Product Description
This is a ready to assemble 1/10 scale electric powered Radio/Control model kit of the Ford F350 High-Lift 4X4 pickup truck. This 1/10 scale assembly model kit comes with all the electrical and mechanical components necessary to construct a high performance R/C car model, with the exception of the following: 4-CHANNEL, 2-SERVO digital proportional R/C unit. Electronic Speed Controller [ESC] (use high power type ESC with reverse function [maximum continuous current: forward 120A, reverse 60A, FET regulation]). Sevro [x2] (high torque servo is recommended when running on rough terrain). Battery (Tamiya 7.2V running battery [ITEM TA201] & Eight R6/AA/UM3 batteries for transmitter) 'ALL SOLD SEPARATELY' **THIS IS NOT A READY-TO-RUN RADIO/CONTROL TOY; ADVANCED MODELING SKILLS IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO SUCCESSFULLY CONSTRUCT THIS MODEL KIT** Model kit features: Electric R/C assembly kit of one of the most representative American pick-up trucks, the Ford F-350. The model features realistic ladder frame, 3-speed transmission and shaft drive 4WD system. Highly detailed injection molded body and large diameter wheels enhance the stylish high-ground-clearance look. Original marking stickers add to the truck's overall realism. **NOTES FROM AARON'S WORKSHOP: We put together this Ford F350 RC kit first straight out of the box then retrofitted the vehicle with Tamiya Multi-function Unit MFC-02 without too much difficulty. To install MFC-02 components, partial disassembly of rear-chassis was necessary. Tamiya recommends the Futaba T4VWD Radio, but this radio has been discontinued by Futaba, so we used the Futaba 4YF FHSS with 2 high torque servos, and it worked great. Futaba T4GWD radio (w/ click-touch trim) will work fine if you do not plan to install the MFC-02 unit with this kit; 4 channel radio is required because this kit features gear-shifting (3 gears). With the MFC-02 unit, you do not need the ESC unit, as it is already included. Enjoy!**

I own two of these. They are fun to build, and even better to play with.The transmission is a 3 speed. First gear is very slow. Second is a faster. Third gear is my favorite and most fun because it is quite quick, yet still has enough torque to climb anything.You can also lock the axles for full time 4 wheel drive, which I did.This is a very reliable truck and it is very hard to break. I have only broken it once, only because someone crashed a very fast car into it.Make sure you use liquid thread lock, which is supplied in the kit, on all the metal pieces that can come loose and fall out.The leaf springs will get bent out of shape a lot.Overall, this is a great truck. It will climb almost anything. You can take it sand, mud, snow, water (you have to waterproof the electronics though) and almost never get stuck. The ground clearance isn't so great, so it will get stuck on sticks or very tall grass.You can beat this truck into the ground and it will keep on running strong. It will provide many years of entertainment.For the inexperienced, beware. You need to buy paint, and paint the body. You also need to buy one servo for shifting, one servo for steering, you'll need at least a three channel radio controller, a battery charger and battery etc.It can be become quite expensive, but in my opinion, it is worth it. If you buy your kids those cheap RC cars from Toys R US, save your time and money, and buy something professional quality like this.I wish someone bought me a quality RC car like this when I was a kid. I went through so many toy quality cars that always broke, and couldn't drive well.

Originally, I was thinking about another (smaller, simpler...) RC kit by Tamiya. Then I bought this incredible F-350, being the "top" of Tamiya's current range (after longing for the "Bruiser" some 20 years ago..;) This F-350 is a dream come true - fun building it, yet more fun driving it. Definitely go for the LED lights, it makes the kit absolutely irresistable;)) Enjoy!

Ford F350 Hi-Lift KitGood morning, from what I read on the released product, tells me that you are missing some components. Now the question is whether you as a shop or dealer is selling these components is missing to make it RTR or ready to run? and if so what price does each of these components. I'm from Venezuela and here do not have much experience with this brand of vehicles to scale. if possible send me a quote on how much they cost.I leave very good morning greetingsmy email is: arlequin38@hotmail.comthanks
