Conquer Trails with the Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Unimog 84321

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.

CW-01 Chassis Designed for Two-Wheel Thrills

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.

Authentic Looks with a Tough Shell

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.

Ready to Run Upgrades and Power

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.

The CW-01 layout favours wheelie control with a robust rear axle and a gear-driven drivetrain, giving predictable power delivery and a playful rear bias on acceleration.
Basic hobby tools cover the build: side cutters, hobby knife, small screwdrivers, hex wrenches, and polycarbonate paint for trimming and finishing the body if desired.
The 540-brushed motor is fine for casual running; if you want more speed or efficiency, consider higher-performance brushed or brushless options matched to the chassis and ESC.
Yes, the chevron-pattern rubber tyres give good grip on mixed surfaces, though wetter or loose terrain may benefit from more aggressive tread or softer compounds.
Upgrading to ball bearings reduces drivetrain drag, and pairing a higher-spec ESC or motor improves throttle response and top speed for more dynamic driving.
