M4 Sherman 105mm Howitzer - Mechanical Steering System (MSS) - RC - 1/16

M4 Sherman 105mm Howitzer - Mechanical Steering System (MSS) - RC

This detailed 1/16 scale RC model kit represents the U.S. Medium Tank M4A3E8 Sherman equipped with a 105mm howitzer. The kit features a Mechanical Steering System (MSS) with differential gearing, and is built using durable materials for realistic movement and long-term performance.

About the model:
- 1/16 scale RC model Kit of the M4A3E8 Sherman with 105mm howitzer turret
- Lower hull made of aluminum
- Fully functional HVSS suspension with coil springs, true to the original design
- Sprocket wheels made from zinc die-cast
- Road wheels with realistic rubber treads
- Pre-assembled movable single-link track with tensioner
-Mechanical Steering System with Type 540 motor
- Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) included
-Commander figure included (torso, unpainted and unassembled)

Mechanical Steering System: A differential gear transfers power from the Type 540 motor. When both tracks rotate at the same speed, the tank moves in a straight line. Steering is achieved by slowing one track using a brake disc controlled by a servo. This causes the other track to accelerate via the internal planetary gear system, resulting in smooth and proportional turns – just like in real tracked vehicles.

RC Functions:
-Proportional forward and reverse drive
-Proportional left and right steering via differential braking system

Dimensions and Weight:
- Length: 37.6 cm
- Width: 18.3 cm
