The Mercedes-Benz Unimog is a benchmark for rugged capability and versatile use. The Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Unimog 84321 on the CW-01 chassis brings that heritage into 1/10 RC form, delivering satisfying wheelie performance and approachable off-road handling for hobbyists who like to drive hard and tweak their setup.
The CW-01 chassis focuses on fun wheelie behaviour, offering a sturdy 2WD layout and a gear-driven drivetrain for dependable power transfer. Independent front suspension paired with a solid rear axle gives the model a distinctive feel, while the included friction damper setup helps the Unimog soak up uneven ground for smoother runs.
This kit features a clear polycarbonate body pre-painted in bright yellow that echoes the full-size truck, combining authentic styling with durability for off-road use. Assembly is required but straightforward thanks to clear instructions, and hobbyists can personalise the model with decals and optional extras like side mirrors.
Fitted with a 540-brushed motor and the TEU-105BK ESC, the Unimog 84321 has the electronics to get moving on grass, gravel, and pavement. Chevron-pattern rubber tyres provide traction across varied surfaces. The kit uses plastic bushings out of the box, and switching to ball bearings will reduce friction and improve efficiency for more spirited driving.
The Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Unimog 84321 is a solid platform for RC enthusiasts who want a mix of classic styling and practical off-road ability, with plenty of scope for upgrades and personal touches.
