Tracked Off-Road Vehicle

Tackle tough terrain with the Tracked Off-Road Vehicle - a bold, spring-powered 3D model built for adventure. Whether you're into UTVs, trail-ready ATVs, dune buggies, or rugged trucks, this model captures the spirit of off-roading in a fun and rewarding DIY build.

This 1:24 scale wooden model features:

• A powerful spring motor

• Four tracked modules in place of wheels

• An open cab

• Functional four-wheel drive

• A hood that opens to reveal the engine

• Rear safety bars

Its standout feature? The rubberised tracks. Inspired by real-life conversions like Mattracks and Rubtrack, these allow the vehicle to power through all kinds of terrain — snow, mud, sand, or gravel — with ease.

You can wind the spring motor up to 26 half-turns using the ratchet mechanism underneath. Use the gear shifter to switch between three modes:

• P (Park): Locks the model in place

• D (Drive): Moves slowly using a rear pendulum for control

• S (Sport): Unleashes full speed, covering up to 4 metres

Watch the model handle rough terrain or small obstacles with ease. Just wind it up, switch the gear, and release — no batteries or remote needed. This advanced-level kit includes 423 laser-cut parts made from art-quality plywood. It takes around 8 hours to assemble, with no glue or special tools required. Everything you need comes in the box: step-by-step instructions, sandpaper for finishing, and wax to smooth and lubricate the gears and moving parts. Take time to break in the track modules for best performance.

Whether you're hitting imaginary trails or just want a rugged showpiece for your shelf, this model is ready to roll.

Time to make tracks.
