Mercedes-Benz Arocs 4151 from Tamiya (56366)

Presentation of the Arocs 4151

After arriving in the hallowed halls of the Simba-Dickie Group, the first thing we did was look at Tamiya's latest news in the truck area. After the Arocs 3363 and the Arocs 3348 rear tipper, there is now the 4-axle 4151 with halfpipe trough. The vehicle is on a completely new chassis and the attachments are, as always, well implemented. The big innovation should be the new battery compartment for all Tamiya fans. As with the Volvo Tow Truck, the designers at Tamiya were forced to give the battery a new home. The placement behind the cab is logical and well implemented.

It's a shame that Tamiya took over the hut from the 3348 and 3363 and, for example, did not replace the mirrors with the cameras, as is the case with the facelift of the original.

A nice detail is that the model is directly equipped with a roof lamp bracket.

Accessories

As with the Arocs 3348, Tamiya recommends the optionally available drive unit. Unfortunately, this turned out to be a bit very slow in practice and even with the optionally available tuning spindle from Carson it was still significantly too slow compared to the original. We hope that the Servonaut spindle drive will also fit. We will provide you with a corresponding update for this.

 

Four-wheel

The model is ideal for conversion to 8x8. And thus expands the construction site trucks in the Tamiya range. We would be happy to put together an individual offer for you and advise you on the purchase. The components of the different manufacturers in the field of lighting and all-wheel drive conversion will fit without any changes, which is why they can be ordered with a clear conscience.

 

Projects

As with the PEMA recovery vehicle, we are planning a slightly larger conversion with the Arocs. Here you will learn a lot in a timely manner. Be curious.
