The Tamiya 58557 Unimog 406 Wheelie puts the rugged presence of the Mercedes-Benz Unimog into a compact 1/10 package that is enjoyable to build and run. The model merges realistic detailing with a chassis that invites off-road antics. Positioned on the CW01 frame, it is ideal for drivers who enjoy wheelies and casual trail work.
The CW01 chassis is a straightforward, reliable layout in Tamiya's catalogue, favoured for its ease of maintenance. It features a durable axle configuration alongside a front suspension arrangement that helps on uneven tracks. The 2WD system keeps repairs simple and the friction dampers assist in keeping runs consistent.
The original Mercedes-Benz Unimog is famed for handling tough terrain, and this scale version mirrors that intent while adding playful handling characteristics. It tackles a variety of surfaces and translates the original vehicle's utility into an accessible RC format.
The kit includes a clear polycarbonate body ready for your paintwork plus a vinyl sticker set for finishing touches. LED light buckets are provided so you can add lighting if desired, which helps when driving in low light or for show pieces.
The Tamiya 58557 Unimog 406 Wheelie is suited to hobbyists who enjoy a blend of scale detail and stunt-capable behaviour. Its buildable platform makes it a satisfying project and a fun runner.
