Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Nice to see a new kit when others are getting killed off. Not licensed, looks like, but solid parts. I’d buy it!

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I just want the body set.

Looks cartoon-ish to me. First thing that popped into my head was this dub ...

Really? Doesn't look cartoonish at all to me...

Maybe another 3 years for the 46 chassis.

That's the best best part of human beings, differing opinions [emoji109]

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

That VW is awesome! "thumbsup"


:shock: I never knew 'Mogs were that small!

So which year(s) is Axial's Chunimog replicating?

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I like it, and am excited to see Axial finally release an SCX10 II kit with a “Dingo” wheelbase(would’ve been nearly equally excited if it was RTR). This kit has some good points!

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Looks like you'd be better off buying the UMG10 kit, then selling off the leftovers as a "raw builders kit" https://www.rpphobby.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=umg10

I'm wondering what the most economical way to put this thing on portals would be? Buy 2 kits (trx4 sport + UMG10) and sell off the leftovers? AR44 portal conversion outers? Just buy some TRX4 takeoff axles? Hmm. Wheels are turning.This thing NEEDS portals and big ag tires!

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

That's effing crazy pricing for that body! $50 for the cab alone. RC Lexan bodies have suddenly become cash cows for RC companies.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Wow that is crazy. I guess I’ll just buy the kit. Sell off what I don’t need.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Yep, looks like ~$160 for all the bits & bobs to complete the body. There's a brand new Redcat Gen8 sitting in my garage (it's the neighbor kids, he wants to build a leaf sprung replica of his dad's 1:1) that was purchased for the same reasons (most cost effective way to get the full Scout II body set.) Maybe the UMG10 kit will get joined with the Gen8?! Now that I think about it, the Redcat portal axle set is only $100, but it's still hard to argue with the aftermarket option parts for trx4 axles. Hmm. I haven't bought myself a new rc in over a year, and my wife said "oh that's cuuuute! I like that!" I'm not sold yet, but again, the wheels are turning.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Speaking of turning wheels , the wheels look great

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Just bought mine. I love it. And I own just about every set of 1.9 tire that there is. Did I mention that I built a 1.9 mpg on a cfx-w chassis that will never be in commission because the axles are a poor design?

I’m thinking that some of that build will get into this build. Swiss’s, my proline tribute 1985 TOYOTA SRT-5 hood will be done once I switch over the wheels. I need something else to drain my wallet!

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I wish Axial could have had these off center front scale axle. Just like the real Unimog [emoji16]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...58ebddcb2c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5daa77754c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...26dd53163d.jpg

Well if a "mog" was a American thing it would always have been big as a house, but its a EURO thing so it don't have to be huge.


I have always been a fan of those, and i do at times see one on the road, and i involuntary go moq moq moq every time.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

If you don't hate American things your comments sure suggest that you do.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Huh? I don’t think it’s suggestive. We have a well-deserved reputation for liking (and doing) everything bigger.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Have you seen his other comments?

We do make big things, but it doesn't mean they're junk or incapable.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Oh, nope.

But on the topic of size, I’m really looking forward to some variety in the rears for this model (assuming everyone doesn’t stick with the honcho style). I can see a scale expedition-style build of one of these in my future...

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

O i like big things, and TBH i feel more a American than a Dane. only Danes i respect lived more than 1000 years ago.

And i have lived a lifetime here aside for a few years working abroad, and i have only been 6 hours in the US, and that was flipping LA of all places.

Hell with a big enough lotto win after i gotten my dream +12 tonnes armoured vehicle for a daily driver :shock: Then i might very well get a F650 just to piss off treehuggers, and burn thru the rest of my lotto win with the gas bill.

That post was just a attempt of being funny, something i do fail at times.

PS: If there are a sports car in my lotto winning future i can assure you it will just be for track use.
Cuz yes i dream of BIG cars, not some low slung "garbage" that will make my driving license vaporize in a few months.

EDIT: and i have just seen moto GP from COTA, and right now i watch Indy cars Zip around long Beach

Double edit : and for 4 of July i posted this for my American friends, and thats just about the only flag me or my friend will ever fly ( filmed at his place )

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Then I mistook your comments. Sorry about that! "thumbsup"

America gets a bad rap, sometimes rightfully so, but overall it's a pretty awesome country.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Trust me there are a great many things about America i would like my American internet friends to explain to me over a cold one on the porch.
On some things we and you guys are so very different though we are both democracies, we Danes still retain our royal family like sort of a hood ornament.

Denmark are also home to the biggest outside of America 4 of July celebration every year and it have been so for many decades, so if you are around here on that date you can still get your 4 of July on at least in one place, maybe not American style but i assure you will go to bed and feel good.

And yes it seem like Americans are also good at making enemies, but i see that as a nice hot spice :)

US : Jump !
Denmark : How high ? "thumbsup"

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I dig the German soldier driver figure.
The rest of the truck is kinda cool also.
I guess.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Let’s all stop with the flag waiving. It’s childish and inappropriate. We are all here because we like to play with a certain kind of toy as grownups. There is a lot that many others could make fun of all of us about.

The German soldier hat is a little silly because it’s not anything close to a Mog 406 or 403. However, cowboys don’t import Mogs, so it’s a wash.

I can’t wait to get mine. I finished up my SR-5 last night after 4 months. Perfect timing for this project! We will see if the redcat axles will work for it!

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Looks like online retailers are getting the UMG10 in stock! I thought about canceling my preorder with RPP, but now it shows processing, so maybe they, too, have gotten some stock in, and are filling pre-orders. [emoji848]

Ordered mine from my LHS. His tracking says it will be in on Tuesday...I better finish some other projects before than lol

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I'm excited to get mine and start some long build that ends up about 85% as perfect as I saw it in my head. Speaking of heads, whomever gets this thing first it would be great to see the size of he driver's head next to a 6 inch or 7 inch figure. I think a face change might be a good change.

I got my redcat portal axles in. We will see if I can find a way to mount everything up. I have some sweet Lockedup rims and about 20 sets of tires that all need to be tried out!

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Are the redcat axles very different from the axial ones in terms of mount points? I'm considering building my first SCX10II and am exploring options. I don't like the look of the vanquish ones and have been interested in the Deadloc Racing ones up for preorder that can bolt up to multpiece AR44s (though I'd need to source those for the UMG kit too): https://deadloc-racing.myshopify.com...rade-pre-order

Probably will run it on stock axles for awhile but like the idea of factory-looking portals like this, they resemble what I'd imagine Axial doing OEM if they ponied up and made portals for the mog body kit.

My LHS got a few in stockhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...6a547a9241.jpg

Just picked up.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Nice. I wanted to pick one up so bad. But just spent 180 on some on-road tires for this weekends race.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Mine is scheduled for delivery today, but I think I might hold off on building it until I get my new shed, which is estimated being done at the end of June.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Got mine. Was working all weekend and haven’t even opened the box.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I started on the axles today. It'll probably be a slow build for me. I'm building it box stock first, but I definitely already have stuff I plan to swap out already once it's done.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I’ve got mine ordered through my local shop. Plan on just building it and beating the crap out of it [emoji6]

Ugh.... I've run into a snag. I'm missing the shock pistons. Plan to use the TRX4 shocks anyway, but I do still want to build it box stock first.

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

Mine came with 2 addendums that didn’t make any sense or difference. What is the difference in the gearboxes that requires the addendum & extra gearbox/ servo mount?

Re: Axial SCX10 II UMG10 4WD rock crawler kit
 

I got the addendum too. I haven't opened it yet, as I haven't gotten to the transmission yet.
