56014 Tamiya – 1/16 RC M4 Sherman 105MM Howitzer

• Last year, Tamiya released the amazing Tiger I Early
  Production Full-Option Complete Kit as a culmination of decades of military
  model and R/C experience. This year, it is the M4 Sherman that rolls out of
  Tamiya&39;s R/C Tank factory. Tamiya&39;s all new M4 Sherman 105mm Howitzer tank
  has been designed for maximum ease-of-use and for control by either a 2-channel
  or 4-channel R/C system.
• Since Tamiya is behind this R/C M4 Sherman, authenticity
  in scale, body detailing, and working suspension goes without saying. Acoustic
  authenticity is also high on the score sheet, through the digitally recorded
  sounds of a real Continental R975-C4 9-cylinder engine, which roars from the
  bowls of the tank as it runs. And speaking of the running, you will be able
  to recreate all the speed and nimbleness of the full-sized M4 Sherman with
  state-of-the-art R/C technology.
• Finally, with the addition of “Battle System”
  infrared tank scoring system, you can reenact one of the most classic military
  clashes of all time-Tiger vs. Sherman.

Roar of the Continental R975-C4 9-cylinder Engine:

• Roar of the Continental R975-C4 9-cylinder Engine
  All the power of the real Continental radial engine can be experienced on
  Tamiya&39;s new R/C M4 Sherman tank. Listen to the deep start-up sound followed
  by throaty idling, and then hear the auto-choke activate as the engine kicks
  over. As you put the tank through its paces, the sound of the engine changes,
  just like the real M4 Sherman. Firing of the cannon, machine gun, raising/lowering
  of the cannon, etc.-all the action is linked with sound for an unbelievably
  realistic tank experience. Suddenly, you are the division commander all the
  power of the legendary U.S. tank is at your fingertips!
