The Tamiya Mercedes-Benz Unimog (58692) is what happens when Tamiya's scale modelling team gets a hold of one of the most respected go-anywhere trucks in history. The full-size Unimog has been hauling, climbing and rescuing across the world since 1948, and this 1/10 RC kit is a faithful, brilliantly detailed reproduction of that legend.

It's a slow, deliberate, scale-realistic driving experience — and that's exactly the point. The Unimog suits builders who like big mechanical detail, working scale models, and rigs that look right in any environment from a dusty park bench to a rocky riverbed.

What you'll need to drive it

Standard 2-channel radio gear, ESC, battery pack and charger. If you want full scale realism, the Tamiya MFC-03 multi-function control unit adds engine sound, lights and gear shifts — we stock those too. Tools: hobby knife, side cutters, hex drivers, paint supplies if you're customising.

For more scale realism, see the Utility Vehicles and European Makers collections.
